    Original Text :Et sic bellum a nostratibus audenter inceptum durissime ab utrisque in alterutrum permixtis aliquamdiu duraverat. Tandem vero Saxones vim et impetum bellantium, utpote ad pugnam omnimode instructorum, diutius ferre non sufficientes, fugam adierunt. Et ferme ad duo miliaria crudeliter eos fugientes insecuti sunt, dehinc auxiliantibus eis ab utroque latere duce Gotifrido et duce Boemiorum.
