Pro hac autem donatione et carte mee confirmatione predicti abbas et conventus dederunt mihi octo marcas argenti. Et ego Walterus et heredes mei prenominato abbati et successoribus suis et predicto conv[entui] predictos xiij solidos redditus warantizabimus contra omnes h[omines et omnes] feminas. Et si forte contigerit quod ego uel hered[es mei] prenominato abbati et conventui predictos xiij solidos redditus warantizare non poterimus, dabimus eis escambium ad [valentiam] predictorum xiij solidorum reditus vel visu vicinorum catallum [predict]orum abbatis et conventus persolvemus. Et sciendum est quod ego [Walterus] remisi et quietum clamavi predictis abbati et conventui totum ius quod habui in predictis xiij solid[atis] redditus de me et heredibus meis inperpetuum. Ita quod prefati abbas et conventus reddent [in] firma de Westmonasterio iij solidos per annum pro omni servicio pro [illis] xiij solid[at]is redditus, et superplussagium remanebit predicto [abbati] et successoribus suis et sepedicto conventui de Westmonasterio. Et ut hec concessio stabilis et inconcussa permaneat ego eam [presen]ti scripto confirmavi et sigilli mei testimonio co[roboravi].
