    Original Text :Et ducibus Alemannorom et Baioariorum cum cohortibus suis bellicosis ad primam coitionem, ut et se lex habet Alemannica, ante se caute nimirum premissis, ipse se retro cum suis electissimis illis fore presidio et adiutorio prudenter satis destinaverat. Saxones autem viso derepente hostium incursu bellantium, quamvis stupidis et non iniuste perterritis, se ex consilio armare et acies suas in pugnam iuxta solitum ordinare, neque locus neque tempus restaret, tamen inordinate et prout articulus temporis momentaneus dederat, tumultuose omnifariam arreptis armis pugnaces eos prestolabantur. Et sic bellum a nostratibus audenter inceptum durissime ab utrisque in alterutrum permixtis aliquamdiu duraverat.
