I believe they spoke Anglo-Saxon, also known as Old English. It was a Germanic language which evolved into Middle English and then to the modern form of English we know today. If you would like to read an example of it then check out The Wanderer, which was an epic Anglo-Saxon poem:

Why did the Anglo-Saxons in 793 ad believe that an invasion from the sea was impossible?

The Anglo-Saxons thought that an invasion from the sea was impossible because the sea around Britain is very rough. There had not been an invasion from the sea since the Anglo-Saxon one, and the Anglo-Saxons had probably forgot that altogether, meaning they thought the sea couldn't be crossed.
