H. B./ p. 488. Digitized by VjOOQ IC 1 56 A History of the Welsh Church Wales, accordingly, was at this time subject to the King of England, and its people were more or less inclined at times to look to him for protection against their own petty kings. Alfred, too, was an enlightened ruler, who saw in the Church a bond of brotherhood that should knit all nations and peoples together, and it mattered not to him whether the Church he befriended was the Church of England or the Church of Wales. He... was wont to give money ' some years in turns to the churches and servants of God in Britain^ and Cornwall, Gaul, Armorica, Northumbria, and sometimes even in Ireland.'* It was natural, therefore, that the clergy of St. David's should look to him for succour against the oppression of Hemeid, and that when Alfred sent for Asser, of whose wisdom and learning he had heard, and pressed him to take up his abode in England, they should advise Asser to consent to stay with Alfred six months in the year, for they hoped that by means of this friend- ship they might secure some abatement of the wrongs they were enduring.
