The merchants of Bremen and Lubeck, who had trading relations with the inhabitants, desired to impart to them the truths and blessings of Christianity, and took a monk of the name of Menard to teach them the elements of the faith. The work succeeded, and Menard was consecrated bishop, and fixed his see at Uxhul, which was afterward transferred to Riga.
On she came her stunsails set her white sails glittering in the sun skimming like a sea-bird over the waters. She proved to be the Maltese schooner 'Felix, bound for Bremen.
"Ah, but red-comb," said the donkey, "you had better come away with us. We are going to Bremen; you can find something better than death everywhere: you have a good voice, and if we make music together it must have some quality!" The cock agreed to this plan, and all four went on together.
Bremen and Verden he had bought a bargain; and it was natural to protect them by such resources as he had, English or other.
It was then supposed that they would march upon Holland by the way of Bremen and Oldenburg.
