(p. 423) are false. The Context is also different in many ways from the normal text
and the Anglo-Saxon does not feature the excellent wording that we expect in a
genuine charter from the Winchester Cartulary. We do not believe that this charter
was written by Eadmund A.
C. S. 789, from the Abingdon Cartulary, shows the different points: "derelinquat
sicuti predixi" and "This synt thes landes gemaero ..". Neither phrase is to be found in
a genuine formula; however, an individual analysis would be required to establish for
certain whether this was anything more than a mere oversight on the part of the
copier.
C. S. 833 may be ascribed to Eadmund A with a degree of probability. The problem
here lies in the Sanction which constitutes a mixed image. It begins with the use of
the plural of charter C. S. 714, which was the pattern for the Sanction of the direct
model C. S. 780. Then, in the Comminatio, this formula suddenly reverts to the
singular. In the witness-list the "Ego ... dux consensi" and "Ego .... minister consensi"
are of course incorrect, but a distortion on the part of the copyist may have occurred
here, as the word "consensi" is added more frequently to the witness names in the
Abingdon Cartulary.
Eadmund B (p. 423)
The Immunity clause of C. S. 768 strays once, with three words, into the format of
Eadm. C: "....densitatibus donans donabo libertatem...". We consider that the error
arose during copying; for the producer of the Glastonbury Cartulary (Bodl. Wood I)
did not copy the charters according to their chronological sequence, but rather wrote
in wild confusion and even taking into account other currently unknown factors. As
he was probably already familiar with the form of Eadmund C – even prior to
recording this charter he had already copied one from Eadmund C – the words flowed
involuntarily from his quill.
Eadmund C (p. 423)
There is a second version, C. S. 755, which belongs to his charter C. S. 797. The two
can be distinguished from each other by the following provision:
C. S. 755: "... succedentibus filiis, abbatibus et sanctis apostolis famulantibus
eternaliter derelinquat."
C. S. 797: "... succedentium sibi cuicumque libuerit .... derelinquat"
We now know that at that time there were practically only secular clerics in the
monasteries 210 .
