Notes

*Napier and Stevenson, p. 137 n. 1, apparently authentic; Darlington 1955, p. 90; Finberg, ECW, no. 243, authentic; John 1966, p. 50 n., should be treated with reserve; Bullough 1972, p. 472 n. 39, on Latin vocabulary; Keynes 1980, p. 44 n. 78, spurious, probably based on an authentic charter issued in 935, cf. S 434, 436; Edwards 1988, pp. 87-8, model for S 1166
