    • [A]nno dominice incarnationis .dccccxcvii. Ego Ælfgyua Imma regina concedo ecclesie Christi, pro salute anime mee, ad opus monachorum, terram nomine Neuuentune et Brutewelle liberam ab omni seculari seruicio et fiscali tributo, exceptis expedicione, pontis et arcis constructione. Ista terra est in regione que nominatur Oxynaford. Ego quoque contuli eidem ecclesie Christi, pro spe salutis eterne, calicem cum patena aurea in quo sunt tredecim marce de puro auro et duo dorsalia de pallio et duas cappas de pallio cum tassellis auro paratis.
