Compare 1577 edition: 1 2 The nobles of the land mainteined Feredeth in his dooings, reckoning all that spirituall persons had to be but cast away, which was the cause (as some thought) that their kingdome came into such ruine, as shortlie after followed. There be some chronicles that write how these things, which are mentioned of Hungus, and Athelstane, chanced not altogither EEBO page image 125 about this season, but Hector Boetius followeth Ve|remond in most of his accounts, as the author whom he taketh to be most certeine, as well for the account of the time as in the course of the whole historie. And for that we meane not to presume wholie to derogat the same Boetius his credit, we haue not much dis|sented from him, but rather followed him in most places, leauing such doubts as may be woorthilie put foorth of that which he writeth, vnto the conside|ration of the diligent reader, sith it is not our pur|pose to impugne, but rather to report what we find written by others, except now and then by the way to admonish the reader of some vnlikeliehoods (as the same dooth séeme to vs and others) and happilie not without iust occasion.

Achaius, after he had reigned 32 yeares, departed this life, in the yeare of our Lord 819, which was a|bout the sixt yeare of Hungus his dominion ouer the Picts. His bodie was buried in Colmekill, ac|cording to the maner of kings amongest his prede|cessors.
