110 SCOTTISH ANNALS
1093
FLORENCE OF WORCESTER, CHRONICON, VOL. II, p. 31.*
Malcolm, king of the Scots, met king William the younger
in the city of Gloucester on the day of the festival of St. Bartholomew,
2 as had been previously appointed by ambassadors
between them : in order that, as certain of the chief men of
England wished, peace might be restored, and firm friendship
might be established between them.
But they departed mutually dissatisfied : for William disdained
to see Malcolm or to confer with him, through too great
pride and power. Moreover also he wished to constrain [Mal-
colm] to do him justice 3 in his own court, according to the judgment
of his own barons only. But Malcolm would by no means
do this, unless upon the borders of their realms, where the kings
of the Scots were accustomed to do right by the kings of the
English, and according to the judgment of the chief men of both
kingdoms.

But so soon as [Malcolm] came home, he gathered his
army and advanced into England, harrying with more
wantonness than behoved him.

Probably during this visit to England,
and after the interview with
William Rufus, Malcolm visited his daughter Matilda at Wilton ; v. infra,

occurring frequently in the tract De Inj. Vex. Will. Ep., in S. of D., i ; (e.g.

of an injury.
