Text	Vita Wilfridi (709 - 720) Stephen of Ripon
Quotation	De causa vero Wilfrithi domini vestri nolite me ab hoc die diutius flagitare, quia, quod ante praedecessores mei reges et archiepiscopus cum consiliariis suis censuerunt, et quod postea nos cum archiepiscopo, ab apostolica sede emisso, cum omnibus paene Brittanniae nostrae gentis praesulibus iudicavimus, hoc, inquam, quamdiu vixero, propter apostolicae sedis, ut dicitis, scripta numquam volo mutare".
Translation	But in the matter of Wilfrid your lord, from this day importune me no more about it. My predecessors, the kings and the archbishop, with their counsellors, arrived at a certain decision which was agreed to by myself and the archbishop who was sent forth from the Apostolic See with almost all the prelates of our people of Britain. This, I say, as long as I live I will never change because of writings sent from the Apostolic See as you declare." (Trans. Colgrave, p. 127)
