DEdit consilium Edricus Canuto regi,* 1.1vt clitunculos Eadwardum & Eadmun∣dum regis Eadmundifilios necaret. Sed quia magnum dedecus sibi videba∣tur, vtin Anglia perimerentur, paruo elapso tempore, ad regem Suauorum occidendos misit. Qui, licèt foedus esset inter cos, precibus illius nullatenùs voluit acquiescere, sedillos ad regem Hungarorum Salomonem nomine mi∣sit nutriendos vitae que reseruandos. Quorum vnus scilicet Eadmundus pro∣cessu temporis ibidem vitam finiuit.

The same in English.
EDric counselled king Kanutus to murther the yong princes Edward and Edmund the sonnes of King Edmund. But because it seemed a thing very dishonourable vnto him to haue them put to death in England, hee sent them, after a short space, vnto the king of Sweden to be slaine. Who, albeit there was a league betweene them, would in no case condescend vnto Canutus his bloody request, but sent them vnto Salomon the king of Hungarie to be nourished and preserued aliue. The one whereof namely Edmund in processe of time there deceased. But Edward recei∣ued to wife Agatha daughter vnto the Germane Emperour Henry, of whom he begot Margaret the Queene of the Scots, and Christina a Nunne, and Clito Edgar.
