Note 1395 — Chapter X · THE REIGN OF EADWARD FROM THE DEATH OF THE ÆTHELING TO THE DEATH OF THE KING.[1258] 1057–1066.

Vita Eadw. 426;

“Gnarus inaccessis scrobibus se credere miles,

Tutius hostiles involet unde acies,

Saltibus et scopulis fretus regione malignâ,

Sic vexat longâ lite Duces geminos.”

So John of Salisbury (iv. 18); “Nivium itaque collem ingressus, vastavit omnia.”
