William ruled England until his death in 1087. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle recalls the
Norman King in its entry for that year: "But amongst other things is not to be
forgotten that good peace that he made in this land; so that a man of any account
might go over his kingdom unhurt with his bosom full of gold. No man durst slay
another, had he never so much evil done to the other; and if any churl lay with a
woman against her will, he soon lost the limb that he played with. He truly reigned
over England; and by his capacity so thoroughly surveyed it, that there was not a
hide of land in England that he wist not who had it, or what it was worth, and
afterwards set it down in his book."
