Note 57 — Chapter II
H. White translation
Ipsum Augustinum hujus belli non modo conscium sed et impulsorem exstitisse. Wilkins adds, that the expression found in Bede, concerning the death of Augustine, is a parenthesis foisted in by Romanist writers, and not found in the Saxon manuscripts. (Conc. Brit. p. 26.) Augustine himself was not only accessory to that war, but he was even its instigator.
