Capitolo 25
According to the "Roman de of Wace Rou", when the father of Harold, Earl
Godwin, died, April 15 th 1053, Harold desired to get the liberation of
the certain hostages, a brother and a cousin to that Godwin had given
Edward the Confessor as safety for the good his/her behaviour, and that
Edward had sent to Duke William to safe-hold. Took Wace the
history from the others and older sources, and its accuracy is a lot of
disputed, but the fact that Harold went to Normandy seems to be
certain, and you will see to Bayeux the portrait of Harold to ask
permission of King Edward to take the trip, and departing on
rump, with his/her hawk and hunting dog and followers to take ship to
Bosham, Chichester nearby and Portsmouth. The date is doubtful alone.
Common sense seems to suggest that first possible dates it was able
is not to explain the rash youth of the aspirant to too soon a
throne that put on in the power of a competitor in the eleventh
century. When that competitor happened to be William the Bastard, you don't protect
childhood could excuse the folly; but the Mr. Freeman, the principal authority
on this delicate subject, plain tilted to think that Harold was forty
years old when he committed his/her serious error, and that the year was around
1064. Among 1054 and 1064 the historian is free to choose that that
per annum that likes him, and the tourist is freer still. To save trouble for
the memory, the year 1058 will serve, from when this is the date of the
triumphal arcs of the Church of Abbey on the Mountain. Harold, in
sailing from the neighbourhood of Portsmouth, it is due to be tied up
for Caen or Rouen but the winds of the west and usual they drove him/it toward east up to
he was thrown to shore on the coast of Ponthieu, among Abbeville and
Boulogne, where he fell in the hands of the Account of Ponthieu,
from who he was freed or it ransomed from Duke William of Normandy and
taken to Rouen. According to Wace and the "Roman de Rou":--
