with Bassianus fewer Romaynes held with Geta but the greater nombre with neither thei fought Geta was slain and Bassianus made Kyng but hetherto the dayly memorie of perpetuall seruitude in the Brutus thought the death of the father no sufficient reuenge to the iniury dooen by the graundefather and therefore thei deposed this Bassianus and made Carassius a Briton their kyng who vpō victory had against this Bassianus gaue vnto y e Scottes Pichtes and Scithians the countrey of Cathenes in Scotlande whiche thei after inhabited whereby appereth his season thereof Coill discended of the bloudde of auncient kynges of Briteigne was shortly after kyng of Britons whose onely daughter and heire called Helen was maried vnto Constācius a Romayn who daunted the rebellion of all partes of greate

Britons he passyng to Rome to receiue the Empire therof deputed one Octauius king of Wales and Duke of Gwisscop which some expoūde to be West sex some Cornewall and some Windsore to haue the gouernement of this dominion but abusyng this kynges innocent goodnes this Octauius defrauded this trust and toke vpon himself the Croune for whiche traytorie albeit he was once vanquished by Leonyne Traherons vncle to Constantyne yet after the death of this Traherons he preuailed again and reigned ouer all Briteigne Constantyne beyng nowe Emperor sent to Maximius his kynseman hether to destroy thesame Octauius whom in singuler battaill discomfited this Octauius whereupon this Maximius as well by the consent of great Cōstantyne as by the eleccion of all the Britons for that he was a Britō in bloud was made kyng of this Briteigne This Maximius made war vpon the Scottes and Scythians within all Briteigne ceassed not vntill he had slain Eugenius their Kyng expulsed and driuen them out of the whole boundes of Briteigne and newly inhabited all Scotland with Britons no man woman or childe of the Scottishe naciō suffered to remain within it whiche as their Hector Boecius saith was for their rebelliō and rebellion properly could it not be excepte thei had been subiectes he suffered the Pychtes to remain his subiectes who made solempne othes to hym after neuer to erect any peculiar kyng of their awne nacion but to remain vnder the old Empire of thonely kyng of Britons He reigned in the whole state of this Briteigne .xxxiiii. yeres ABOVT xlv yeres after this beyng long tyme after the death of this Maximius with the helpe of Gouuan or Gonan and Melga the Scottes newly arriued in Albania and thereof created one Fergus the seconde of that name to be their kyng but because thei wer before banished the continēt lande thei crouned hym kyng of their auenture in Argile in the fatall chater of Merble the yere of our Lorde CCCC xxii Maximian soonne of Leonyne Traherons brother to kyng Coill and vncle to the holy Helen was by liniall succession next kyng of Britons but to appease the malice of Dyonothus kyng of Wales who also claimed the kyngdome he maried Othilia eldest daughter of this Dyonothus and afterward assembled a great power of Britons and entered Albania and inuaded Gallowaie Mers Annandale Pentlande Carrike Kyll and Cunyngham and in battaill slewe bothe this Fergus then kyng of Scottes Durstus the king of Pichtes and exiled all their people out of the continent lande whereupon the few nombre of Scottes then remainyng on liue went to Argila and made Eugenius their kyng VVHEN this Maximian had thus obteigned quietnes in Briteigne he departed with his cosyn Conan Meredecke into Armorica where thei subdued the kyng did depopulate the countrey which he gaue to Conan his cosyn to be afterward inhabited by Britons by the name of Briteigne the lesse and hereof this realme tooke name of Briteigne the greate whiche name by consent of forein writers it kepeth vnto this daie AFTER the death of this Maximian dissencion beeyng betwene the nobles of greate Briteigne the Scottes swarmed together again came to the wall of Adrian where this realme beyng deuided in many fashions thei ouer came one and hereupō their Hector Boecius as an hēne that for laiyng of one egge will make a great cakelyng solemply triumphyng of a conquest before the victorie allegeth that hereby the Britons were made tributaries to the Scottes and yet he confesseth that thei wonne no more lande by that supposed cōquest but the samle porciō betwene theim and Humber which in the old particions before was annexed to Albania it is hard to bee beleued that suche a broken nacion as the Scottes at that tyme were returnyng from banishment within foure yeres before since in battaill lost bothe their kynges and the greate nōber of their best men to bee thus sodenly able to make a conquest of greate Briteigne verie vnlikely if thei had conquered it thei would haue left the whote sonne of the Easte partes to dwell in the cold Snowe of Scotlande Incredible it is that if thei had cōquered it thei would not haue deputed offices in it as in cases of conquest behoueth And it is beyond all belefe that great Briteigne or any other Countrey should be wonne without the cōmyng of any enemie into it as thei did not but taried at y e same wall of Adryan But what nede I speake of these defences when thesame Boecius scātly trusteth his awne belife in this tale For he saieth that Galfride and sundery other Autentique writers sōderly vary frō this part of his story wherein his awne thought accuseth his cōsciēce of vntruth Wherein he furder forgettyng howe it behoueth a lyer to bee myndefull of his assercion in the fourth Chapiter next folowyng wholy bewraieth hymself saiyng that the confederate Kynges of Scottes and Pychtes vpon ciuil warres betwene the Britons whiche then was folowyng hoped shortly to enioy all the land of great Briteigne from beyond Humber vnto the fresh sea whiche hope had been vain and not lesse then voyde if it had been their awne by y e conquest before Constantine of litle Briteigne descended frō Conan kyng therof cosyn of Brutes bloud to this Maximiā and his next heire was next kyng of great Briteigne he immediatly pursued the Scottes with warres and shortely in battaill slewe their Kyng Dougard the firste yere of his reigne and so recouered Scotlande out of their handes and toke all the holdes therof into his awne custodie Vortiger shortly after obteyned the Croune of Briteigne against whom the Scottes newly rebelled for repressyng whereof he mistrustyng the Britons to hate him for y e treasonable death of Kyng Constance sonne of this Constantyne as one that to auoyde the smoke dooth fall into the fire receiued Hengest a Saxon with a greate nombre of his nacion into this Realme with whom and a few Britons he entred Scotlande and ouer came
