Quo uidelicet anno, qui est ab incarnatione dominica DCLXXXV., Hlotheri Cantuariorum rex, cum post Ecgberctum fratrem suum, qui VIIII annis regnauerat, ipse XII annis regnasset, mortuus erat VIII. Idus Februarias. Uulneratus namque est in pugna Australium Saxonum, quos contra eum Edric filius Ecgbercti adgregarat, et inter medendum defunctus. Ac post eum idem Edric anno uno ac dimidio regnauit; quo defuncto, regnum illud aliquod temporis spatium reges dubii uel externi disperdiderunt; donec legitimus rex Uictred, id est filius Ecgbercti, confortatus in regno, religione simul et industria gentem suam ab extranea inuasione liberaret.
