The Story of Cadwallon

clouds charged with hail and snow and rain, and the third brewed winds. He set these three women in a tower of his castle at York, and the king looked every day into his magic mirror.

When he saw that Cadwallon was coming with his army along a difficult way, then he went with his host against him, and caught him stretched in extended line, and cut his army in half. And when he saw that Cadwallon was on the alert, and prepared for battle, then he kept away; but so soon as his mirror told him that the army of the Britons was resting and relaxing its discipline, then he came down on it from all quarters, and cut it to pieces.

Moreover, when the forces of the Northumbrians and of the Britons met on a plain, then he set his witches to work, and they made furious storms; thunderbolts and hail were flung out of the clouds against Cadwallon, and such a furious gale drove in the faces of the Britons that it beat back their armies, and gave double force to those of the Northumbrian foreigners.
