Tantumque rex ille caelestis regni amator factus est, ut ad ultimum relictis regni negotiis, et cognato suo Ecgrice commendatis, qui et antea partem eiusdem regni tenebat, intraret monasterium quod sibi fecerat, atque accepta tonsura pro aeterno magis regno militare curaret.
And so deeply was that king a lover of the heavenly kingdom, that leaving at the last the affairs of his realm and entrusting them to his kinsman Egric, who also before held part of the same kingdom, he entered to a monastery which he had made for himself, where being shoren in he laboured rather to make war for the everlasting kingdom.
