“One of the Knights raised his sword and wounded Becket in the head. That same blow almost cut off my arm as I held the Archbishop. Then Becket received a second blow, but still he managed to stand. At the third blow he fell. He said, “For the name of Jesus and the protection o his Church I am prepared to die.” Then the third knight struck Becket so hard that his sword broke. The top was cut off the Archbishop’s head so that the blood stained the cathedral floor. Another man put his foot on Becket’s neck and scattered his brains all over the floor. He called out, “Let us away knights. He will trouble us no more”. An eyewitness account from Edward Grim, a monk, who watched the murder.
