Edward, who needed no tutorials on the connectionsbetween ceremonies and power, immediately took this as a slap in the face, anact of virtual rebellion. In 1276, a huge army, the biggest seen in Britain since the Norman Conquest, invaded Gwynedd, penetrating 1 right to its furthest corners, to Snowdonia and to Anglesey.Faced with this invasion, Llewellyn was forced to surrender.But, as so often in these years, humiliation 2 bred defiance 3 .In 1282, the Welsh launched a surprise attack on an English garrison 4. Edward now bore down againwith an even bigger army, but this campaign was far from being a walkover.

译文:爱德华深知,朝臣礼仪象征着王权统治力,他视此为一种羞辱,形同谋反。1276年,自诺曼征服战之后,不列颠规模最大的军队入侵了格温内思,长驱直入其疆界最远端,到达斯诺登地区和安格西岛。面对强敌压境,卢埃林不得不屈膝称臣,但正如这些年一再重演的历史一样,屈辱最终会酝酿出反抗。1282年,威尔士人对英格兰驻军发动了一次突袭,爱德华派遣了更大规模的军队进行镇压,但这场战争绝非想象中那样轻易。
