Notes I, Oslac, dux of the South Saxons, gladly for the good of my soul grant a certain portion of land to the venerable church of the holy apostle Paul, that is, two called Earnley and Tielesora with all things pertaining thereto, fields, woods. In the year of the Lord's incarnation 780 this was done in the place which is called Selsey [Siolesaei]. [witnesses] I, Offa, by the gift of God king of the Mercians, sign and agree to the aforesaid land at the request of Wihthun, bishop of the South Saxons, and will confirm it with the impression of the Lord's cross. [witnesses] This was lawfully done in the place which is called Irthlingborough.
