The house annals of Egmond, the counts of Holland's abbey, and the main native source for Holland around 1200. For the years about 1200 they cover Count Dirk VII (died 1203), his quarrels with his brother William and with the West Frisians, the bishop of Utrecht, and the Zeeland dispute with Flanders. Pro-Holland and brief, but close to events.
