A Special St. David’s Day Programme: Hastings Municipal Orchestra, "Welsh Rhapsody" (German). 8.14: Annotation re St. David’s Day: March 1st is kept by Welshmen at Home and Abroad as a festival in honour of their patron Saint © David. Numbered in the "Welsh Triade" as one of the "three canonised Saints of Britain," St. David is described by the ancient Welsh author, © Giraldus, as being "a mirror and a pattern to all, instructing both by word and example, excellent in his preaching, but still more so in his works. He was doctrine ‘to all, a guide to his- religions, a life to the poor, a support to orphans, a protection to widows, a father to the fatherland, a rule to monks, and a model to teachers; becoming all to all, that so he might gain all to God." St. David is said to have been uncle to King Arthur. He first embraced ‘the ascetic life in the Isle of Wight. but subsequently removed to Menevia, in Pembrokeshire, where’ he founded twelve monasteries, Beconiing Archbishop to Caerteon in A:D. 577, this saintly man lived to the remarkable age of 146, his death taking place in A.D. 642. The leek worn by Welshmen on this day is in memory of a complete victory obtained by them over the Saxons (March 1, 640), This victory is ascribed "to the prayers of St. David," and his judicious adoption of a leek in. the cap, that the Britons might readily recognise each other. The Saxons, having no badge, not unfrequently turned their swords against their own supporters. Choir of H.M.
