Ad cuius pietatis et iustitiae opus pertinet etiam hoc, quod nostram gentem per praedicatores quos huc direxit, de dentibus antiqui hostis eripiens, aeternae libertatis fecit esse participem: cuius fidei et saluti congaudens, quamque digna laude commendans, ipse dixit in expositione beati Iob: Ecce lingua Brittaniae, quae nil aliud noverat quam barbarum frendere, iamdudum in divinis laudibus Hebraeum coepit Alleluia sonare.
To the work of this Gregorys piety and righteousness this pertaineth also, that he hath made our nation, by preachers which he sent hither, to be partakers of eternal liberty, wresting us from the teeth of our old enemy: and rejoicing with our faith and salvation, and commending the same with worthy praise, he saith thus in his exposition of blessed Job: Behold the tongue of Britain, which once knew nothing but to gnash the teeth rudely, hath long since begun to sing the Hebrew Alleluia in giving praise to God.
