Robert with him ;
FROM ENGLISH CHRONICLERS 107
and presently ordered an army to be called
but the ship-army
out, both a ship-army and a land-army :
England in the month of August with his brother Robert'; and not long
afterwards set out for Scotland with no small fleet and an army of horse, to
subdue Malcolm, king of the Scots. But before he arrived there, a few days
before the festival of St. Michael, almost his whole fleet was sunk, and many
of his army of horse perished of hunger and cold.
"
And king Malcolm met him with an army in the province of Loidis.''
Cf. Hoved., i, 143-144. Ann. of Winch., in A.M., ii, 36. Ann. of Wav.,
in A.M., ii, 201. Cf. also V.O.R., in Misc. Biog., 22-23. (The same work,
21-22, speaks of a previous invasion of Scotland under Nigel of Albini.)
"
W. of M., G.R., ii, 365 :
. . . And without fulfilling his intention he
returned to the kingdom with both his brothers, because disturbances of
Scots and of Welsh were calling him.
"
And immediately he led an expedition first against the Welsh, after-
wards against the Scots ; but achieved nothing worthy of his greatness,
losing many soldiers, and having many beasts of burden captured. And
not then only, but many times, he had small success against the Welsh. . . ."
Cf. ibid., 363.
A peculiar account is in O.V., VIII, 20, in Migne, 188, 619-620 :
" At
that time Malcolm, king of Scots, rebelled against the king of the English,
and refused the service due to him.
"
Also king William, after he had made peace, as we have related above,
with his brother Robert in Normandy, and had brought him with him against
the faithless traitors who had conspired against the king, massed together
the army of the whole /of England and led it as far as the great river
which is called the Scots' water [the Forth]. But because the crossing was
impracticable, he halted upon the bank.
"
And the king of Scots stood opposite to him with his legions, ready to
fight; and announced to the king of the English by his messengers as
follows : f v
" '
I owe nothing to thee, king William, but conflict, if I be provoked
with injuries by thee. But if I see Robert, the first-born son of king William,
to him I am prepared to offer whatever I owe.'
"
Hearing this, earl Robert by decision of the wise sailed across with a
few knights.
"And the king of Scots received him kindly, and amicably kept him
with him for three days. Then he took the earl up upon a lofty mountain,
and thence showed him in a certain plain a great host of armed men. Then
he led him between two mountains in another direction, and showed him a
iter army in another plain :
'
Such are the ranks of Scotland with which
'
am surrounded,' said he, and prepared to receive thy brother, should he
jsume to sail over hither to me. Would that he would attack us, and
the sharpness of our missiles !
" '
I assert that king Edward, when he gave to me Margaret his grandniece
(proneptis] in wedlock, gave to me the county of Lothian. Thereafter
king William yielded what his predecessor had given to me, and made me
subject to thee his first-born son. And therefore what I, have promised to
thee I shall adhere to. But to thy brother I have promised nothing, and
owe " '
nothing. "No one," as Christ says, can serve two masters."
" '
Robert : replied
As thou affirmest, so it is. But changes of circumstance
have taken place, and my father's statutes have veered in many cases
from their former stability. Now therefore, renowned king, consent with me,
and come with me to my brother ; and thou shalt find with him sweetness
and affluence of good, because he is nearer and more powerful, and has
greater plenty of riches.'
" This being promised, therefore, the king became willing to believe ;
and, after conferences, was pacified with king [William]. Thereafter the
kings sent back their armies, and themselves set out together for England."
