(p. 401) “Quamvis enim…Tamen” instead of the “Quamvis…Tamen” of the model.<br />

The royal style and the beginning of the Dispositive section vaguely demonstrate the<br />

influence of Eadmund C. also the location description:<br />

“illo in loco ubi a ruricolis…” will have originated from the form of Eadmund C. The<br />

remaining diplomatic is similar to that of Eadgar A. Eadgar B also uses the<br />

“caraxantur” in the Scripta line. We are familiar with this from Eadgar A’s first<br />

charters. One may well assume that Eadgar B was trained by Eadgar A, who also<br />

familiarised him with the text of Eadmund C.<br />

We encounter the common, distinct characteristic in the boundary clause, which,<br />

according to the wording of the endorsement 146 :<br />

“This is thara…hida land boc (landbook, see above) aet…”<br />

is formed as follows:<br />

“This synd tha land gemere thara…hida aet…aerest…”<br />

(“These are the land boundaries of the ….”)<br />

This is the main characteristic of the scribe Eadgar B.<br />

The later Proems are also, to a limited extent, suitable for a comparison of styles.<br />

They are put together according to old forms, occasionally being embellished by the<br />

distinctive wording of Eadgar A.<br />

We find this in<br />

C. S. 1075: “…cum cuius hic transeuntis mundi felicitates in adversis successionibus<br />

sedulo permixta et conturbata perspicitur…”<br />

(also reminiscent of Eadgar A).<br />

C. S. 1114: “Alme auctoritatis…”<br />

This charter shows that Eadgar B describes the recipient in a different way from<br />

Eadgar A, when it is a religious institution.<br />

C. S. 1114: “…domino nostro…sanctaeque eius aecclesiae…dicate loco qui caelebri<br />

aet…nuncupatur onomate…aeterna largitus sum hereditate…”<br />

C. S. 1066: “…Abbandunensi aecclesiae… aeterna largitus sum<br />

(Eadgar A) hereditate…”<br />

Eadgar B apparently even used charter C. S. 1066 as a model. This is indicated by<br />

both the “Alme” and “nuncupatur onomate” as well as the “aeterna largitus sum…”;<br />

but in particular the “onomate” and “aeterna” that Eadgar A uses just in this charter.<br />

Eadgar B makes only minor changes to the model.<br />

Eadgar B is also strongly influenced by Eadgar A. As we can now assume that<br />

Eadgar A first wrote as a recipient producer (see below) i.e. produced C. S. 1066 as<br />

such, we can probably conclude that Eadgar B was an occupant of the Abingdon<br />

monastery and was approached by Eadgar A to assist him.<br />
