Note 1516 — Chapter X · THE REIGN OF EADWARD FROM THE DEATH OF THE ÆTHELING TO THE DEATH OF THE KING.[1258] 1057–1066. (continued 2)
Reading edition
Æthelred, 396. “Ipso ad regnum cœleste translato, cuncta terrarum regna commota sunt. Syria paganis subjecta, destructa monasteria, dirutæ à fundamentis ecclesiæ, plena funeribus omnia, morte principum Græcorum, Romanorum, Francorum, Anglorum, et regna cætera perturbata.” As regards the “Princeps Romanorum,” the hagiographer is wide of his mark, for Henry the Fourth survived the Confessor forty years.
