Reading edition
Hist. S. Flor. Salm. (Marchegay, Eglises), p. 276.—“Ligerique ac Vigennâ transvadatis.” The writer, living close to the spot, can hardly have mistaken its topography; but unless he has done so, the confluence of the Vienne and the Loire must at that time have been considerably farther west than at present; it is now at Candes, some distance to the east of Saumur and Brain.
