Dan Carlin's Hardcore History

NOTE

The Appearance of Saint Lebwin

Saint Lebwin is a figure in the Middle Ages who is known for one of the greatest speeches ever given./nThe version of the story that is attributed to him is from an unknown author, and a later version that is more commonly known is simply taken from this version./nHe is described as being able to make himself invisible, and when he first appears to the Saxons, he is wearing religious vestments that might have looked like a superhero outfit./nHe is able to bring about change by preaching to the Saxons, and if they are willing to listen, he promises them benefits that they have never heard of before./nIf they are unwilling to listen, he warns them of a king who will come and conquer them.
