[Footnote 64: Anna Comnena was born the 1st of December,
A.D. 1083, indiction vii., (Alexiad. l. vi. p. 166, 167.) At
thirteen, the time of the first crusade, she was nubile, and
perhaps married to the younger Nicephorus Bryennius, whom
she fondly styles, (l. x. p. 295, 296.) Some moderns have
imagined, that her enmity to Bohemond was the fruit of
disappointed love. In the transactions of Constantinople and
Nice, her partial accounts (Alex. l. x. xi. p. 283 - 317)
may be opposed to the partiality of the Latins, but in their
subsequent exploits she is brief and ignorant.]
