[57] When Cardinal Paparo came to Ireland in 1151 he found "a see const.i.tuted at Dublin in the diocese of Glendalough."--_Crede Mihi_ (ed. Gilbert), p. 11.

[84] For a fuller account of the beginnings of the diocese of Clogher see _L.A.J._ vol. iv. pp. 129-159. To the reasons there given for believing that Christian transferred the see from Clogher to Louth should be added the fact that in Tundale (p. 54) he is called _Lugdunensis episcopus_.

[85] _Life_, -- 33, 34.

[86] _Ibid._ -- 35-41. The reader may be reminded, however, that the two visits of Malachy to Clairvaux, in the course of this journey, produced the friends.h.i.+p between him and St. Bernard, which had its twofold issue in the composition of the important doc.u.ments included in this volume, and the introduction of the Cistercian Order into Ireland.

[90] _Life_, -- 67-75.

[91] There was no unnecessary delay on the part of the Pope in sending the palls. After the death of Malachy a deputation was sent from Ireland to Rome to demand them. Paparo set out to confer them, and reached England in 1150; but King Stephen would not allow him to proceed to Ireland except on terms which he could not accept. (John of Hexham, p. 326; _Historia Pontificalis_ in _M.G.H._ xx. 539 f.)

[95] See p. 122, note 1.

[96] Cp. _R.I.A._ x.x.xv. 258 ff. This conclusion is corroborated by Tundale's Vision, which seems to have been written early in 1149 (see Friedel and Meyer, _La Vision de Tondale_, 1907, pp. vi-xii; _Rev.

Celt._ xxviii. 411). The writer speaks of the _Life of Malachy_ as already written, and in course of transcription (Tundale, p. 5, 'cuius uitam ... Bernhardus ... transscribit'). He may have derived his erroneous statement (_ibid._) that Pope Eugenius went _to Rome_ in the year of Malachy's death from St. Bernard: see p. 122, note 1.
