We went over to Magna Charta Island, and had a look at the stone which stands in the cottage there and on which the great Charter is said to have been signed; though, as to whether it really was signed there, or, as some say, on the other bank at "Runningmede," I decline to commit myself.
Andammo fino all’isola della Magna Carta, e demmo un’occhiata alla pietra che vi hanno eretta, e sulla quale si dice che la gran carta sia stata firmata; ma se sia stata realmente firmata lì, o, come alcuni dicono a Runningmede, sull’altra riva, non potrei assicurare.
