The ground covered by the various recensions is as follows:

Canterbury, A. D. 1-A. D. 977. Peterborough, A. D. 1-A. D. 1154.
Abingdon, B. C. 60—A. D. 1066. Cott. Dom. A. VIII, A. D. 1-A. D. 1058.
The Latin Chronicle of Aethelweard (d. 998 ? ), from the Creation to 975, is the
earliest of a long line and may be mentioned here as being founded on
the Old English Chronicle, and on the works of Isidore and Bede. The MS
was burnt in the Cottonian fire. See Mon. Hist. Brit. 1848, ed. Hardy,
T. D. , Giles's Chronicles and Stevenson's Church Historians of England. ]

the murder of Cynewulf by Cyneheard while the king was visiting his
mistress at Merton, Surrey. ]
