¶How the Brytons wente for to seke the grete stones in Irlonde.
AS soone as the. Brytons had herde of this thynge / they yede and swore amō¦ge them they wolde go seke those stones. And toke with them. Vter the kynges broder to be thyef capytayne and .v. thousande men / and Merlyn counselled them for to go vnto Irlon¦de and soo thye dyde / And whan the kynge of Irlonde that was culled Guillomer herde tell straungers were arryued in his londe / he assē¦bled a grete power & fought ayenst them But he & his folke were dyscomfyted. ¶The Bry∣tons went before tyll they came to the mount of Kyan / and clymmed vp vnto the mounte. But whan they sawe the stones & the maner how they stode / they had grete meruaylle and sayde bytwene themself / that noo man sholde them remeue for noo strengthe ne engyne soo grete they were and soo longe. But. Merlyn thrugh his crafte he remeued them and brou∣ghte them in to theyr shyppes and came ayen in to thys londe. And Merlyn sette the stones there that the kyng wolde haue them. And set∣te them in the same manner that they stode in Irlonde / and whan ye kynge sawe that it was made he thanked Merlyn / And rychely hym rewarded at his owne wyll. And that place le¦te calle Stonhenge for euer more.
