Erat autem prope ipsam civitatem ad orientem ecclesia in honorem sancti Martini antiquitus facta dum adhuc Romani Brittaniam incolerent, in qua regina, quam Christianam fuisse praediximus, orare consueverat.
Now there was right close to the city at the east end a church built of ancient time in honour of Saint Martin, made while the Romans were yet dwelling in Britain, in the which the queen (which as we have said was a Christian woman) did use commonly to pray.
