   Often, there are ## around our village. There come sometimes Englishmen (Angles) and Welshmen (Britwelsh) from England. Sometimes Danes from Denmark. That is good buymanship for our village. The commerciants bring ## and ## from the British Isles. Then, the ships go right to Colonia in the Frankish Rhineland. All ships that go through our village must pay a toll for the count Dirk. The people of Tiel is not happy with the toll we have, but that doesn't interest us at all.
