Excerpt from Saint Berin, the Apostle of Wessex: The History, Legends, and Traditions of the Beginning of the West-Saxon Church Winchester took away whatever importance may have been acquired by the first West Saxon See-town. Then there remained no great church at Dorchester to treasure its annals; and when Bishop Daniel of Winchester was supplying Venerable Bede with notes of West Saxon history, there was little that he could discover about the beginnings of his own bishopric. Necessarily, too, among the foremost founders of our Church, all other figures are overshadowed by that of St. Augustine, who first brought Christianity to the English. Indeed the names of the early Northumbrian bishops, Paulinus and Aidan, Chad and Wilfrid, are better known than that of Berin, partly because of the dignity to which the See of York afterwards attained, and partly because Northumbria became the first great seat of English learning, and thus its records became ample. Even at Winchester the fame of St. Berin, who lived far away upon the Thames, was eclipsed in the eyes of churchmen of the next ages by the memory of their own bishop, St. Swithun; and while they revered their founder and honoured his bones, they looked to their local saint with still deeper reverence and gave him the more splendid enshrinement.
