CHAPTER

The Rise of Ethelbert of Kent and the Conversion to Christianity

This chapter discusses the rise of Ethelbert of Kent, who successfully brings all the other monarchies between Kent and Humber under his rule. His marriage to Bertha, the daughter of the French king, is mentioned, along with the condition that she can freely practice her Christian faith. The chapter also mentions the difficulty of converting the Saxons due to hostility and falsehood, but introduces the possibility of conversion through the preaching of the Christian faith by a more remote nation.
