[All]: Cf. DGB 108 (Reeve and Wright 2007, 141.565-9): ‘Tunc ait Merlinus, qui et Ambrosius dicebatur: “Domine mi rex, uoca operarios tuos et iube fodere terram, et inuenies stagnum sub ea quod turrim stare non permittit.” Quod cum factum fuisset, repertum est stagnum sub terra, quod eam instabilem fecerat’ ‘Then Merlinus, who was also called Ambrosius, said, “My lord King, call your workmen and set them digging up the ground; you will find a pool beneath it which prevents the tower from standing.” This was done and a pool was discovered beneath the ground, which made it unstable’ (cf. Reeve and Wright 2007, 140).
