Anno Dominicae incarnationis sexcentesimo quarto Augustinus Brittaniarum archiepiscopus ordinavit duos episcopos, Mellitum videlicet et Iustum: Mellitum quidem ad praedicandum provinciae Orientalium Saxonum, qui Tamense fluvio dirimuntur a Cantia et ipsi Orientali mari contigui, quorum metropolis Lundonia civitas est, super ripam praefati fluminis posita, et ipsa multorum emporium populorum terra marique venientium: in qua videlicet gente tune temporis Saberct nepos Aedilbercti, ex sorore Ricula regnabat, quamvis sub potestate positus eiusdem Aedilbercti, qui omnibus, ut supra dictum est, usque ad terminum Humbrae fluminis, Anglorum gentibus imperabat.
In the 604th year of the incarnation of our Lord, Augustine archbishop of the Britains ordained two bishops, to wit Mellitus and Justus: the one, that is Mellitus, to preach to the province of the East Saxons, which are separated from Kent with the river Thames and are fast joined to the East Sea, whose chief city is London, of situation set upon the bank of the said flood, and itself a mart of many people arriving thither by land and sea: in the which country at that time reigned Sabert, Ethelberts nephew by his sister Ricula, although set under the dominion of the same Ethelbert who was (as has been said before) lord over all the English races as far as the boundary of the flood Humber.
