c.1193 Referring to the London massacre of 3 September 1189:
Eodem coronationis die circa illam solempnitatis horam qua Filius
immolabatur Patri, inceptum est in ciuitate Londonie immolare Iudeos patri
suo diabolo. Tantaque fuit huius celebris mora misterii ut uix altera die
compleri potuerit holocaustum.
