 them in the territory of the vill of Schottun by the same

 so by that rivulet as it descends towards the chapel of St. 

 Edelride, the Virgin, as far as another rivulet which descends 

 near Homeldun, and thence upwards by the same rivulet as 

 far as a certain little vale (parvulum vallem) which descends 

 near Homeldun, as that rivulet comes to Homeldun from across 

 the way which comes from Jetam, and so by the foresaid way 

 as far as two great stones. Besides I have conceded to the 

 same monks all easements of that vill of Schottun, and to 

 their men if they should choose to dwell there, as well in 

 pasture and fuel, as in the mill, to wit, that they should
