Namque ipsi australes Picti, qui intra eosdem montes habent sedes, multo ante tempore ut perhibent, relicto errore idolatriae, fidem veritatis acceperant, praedicante eis verbum Nynia episcopo reverentissimo et sanctissimo viro, de natione Brettonum, qui erat Romae regulariter fidem et mysteria veritatis edoctus; cuius sedem episcopalem sancti Martini episcopi nomine et ecclesia insignem, ubi ipse etiam corpore una cum pluribus sanctis requiescit, iam nunc Anglorum gens obtinet.
For these same southern Redshanks who have their dwelling-places inside of the same mountains, had as they say, long before abandoned the error of idolatry and received the true faith, at what time the word was preached unto them by the most reverend bishop and holy man Ninian, a Briton born, who had been fully taught at Rome according to rule the faith of the mysteries of the truth; whose episcopal see, made notable for the name and church of the holy bishop Martin (where Ninian himself doth rest in the body along together with many holy men), the English nation holdeth at this very time.
