Part of the entry for 1066 in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, read in Old English. It describes the arrival of Duke William in Pevensey, the Battle of Hastings, and the death of Harold. The text was copied using an Old English hand. Please note that this is the *unglossed* version of the video: a glossed version is available here: http://www.youtube.com/user/Leofwin2010#p/u/2/tjXmKOt7hns
