William of Malmesbury
We have experienced the truth of this prophecy, for England has become the habitation of outsiders and the dominion of foreigners. Today, no Englishman is earl, bishop, or abbott, and newcomers gnaw away at the riches and very innards of England; nor is there any hope for an end of this misery.
Malmesbury quotes
That fatal day for England, the sad destruction of our dear country [dulcis patrie].
