Nec quisquam adventum eorum cavere poterat inopinum, non destinata, sed varia petentium et longinqua, et quocumque ventus duxerat, inrumpentium: quam ob causam prae ceteris hostibus Saxones timentur ut repentini. Et quamlibet coniurati multorum opes attriverint, oestroque concepti furoris exagitati, strages edidere luctificas, sanguinis nihilo minus avidi quam praedarum, tamen ne per minutias gesta narrando, rectum aliquatenus operis impediam cursum, id unum sufficiet, eorum exitiale poni commentum.
