Anno Dominicae incarnationis sexcentesimo octogesimo quarto, Ecgfrid rex Nordanhymbrorum misso Hiberniam cum exercitu duce Bercto, vastavit misere gentem innoxiam et nationi Anglorum semper amicissimam; ita ut ne ecclesiis quidem aut monasteriis manus parceret hostilis.
In the 684th year of the Lords incarnation, Egfrid king of Northumberland sent Bert his captain-general with an host of men into Ireland, and miserably spoiled the harmless people, which had ever been great friends to the English nation; insomuch that the hand of the enemy spared not even the churches or monasteries.
