THE .CX. CHAPITER.

UOrtipori{us} sonne of Aureli{us} Conanus after the opynyon before sayd / was ordeyned kynge of Brytayne in the yere of our lorde .v. hundred and .xlviii. and the .xxxiiii. yere of Clotharius thenne kynge of Fraunce. Of the whych is lytell me∣mory lefte in any cronycler or wry∣ter / excepte y^t Guydo testyfyeth hym to be a vyctoryous knyght / shewyng breefly that he in sondry batayles scomfyted the Saxons / and defen∣dyd hys lande and Brytons from y^e daunger of them and other that the Saxons alyed them wyth.

In the tyme of the reygne of thys kynge / a Saxon named Ella the son of Iffus, began to reygne in y^e south syde of the kyngdome of Northum∣berlande called Deyra / as before is touchyd in the chapyter of the sayde kyngdome.

Then yt foloweth / whan this Uor¦tiporius hadde ruled the Brytons knyghtly by the terme of .iiii. yeres / he dyed, and was put to hys fader / leuynge none heyre of hys body.

For as myche as all wryters agre∣en, that the kynges of westsaxon at length subdued all the other kyng∣domes / and made of the hole land of mych Brytayne but one kyngdome or monarchye / and all other as well of Brytons as of Saxons fayled or lefte of, that all onely excepted: ther∣fore I entende to brynge in, the na∣me of euerych kyng of westsaxon frō the fyrst Cerdycus or Chyldricus, & ioyne them wyth the kynges of Bry¦tons / for so long as hereafter y^e sayd Brytons contynued theyr reygne wythin any parte of Brytayne.
