    • [A]nno dominice incarnationis .dccc.xxxv. Ego Cyneuuara abbatissa concedo Humberto duci terram iuris mei nomine Wircesuurthe, ea conditione ut omni anno det ecclesie Christi in Dorobernia pro gablo plumbum trecentorum solidorum, ad opus eiusdem ecclesie archiepiscopo Ceolnotho et successoribus eius. Hoc donum meum de predicta uilla prefata ecclesia inperpetuum omni anno habeat. Si quis hanc meam donacionem Christi ecclesie in Dorobernia abstulerit, perpetuo anathemate perculsus, diabolus eum possideat in societate suorum.
