In writing of the journey of Sighelm, who was sent by King Alfred to the shrines of Saints Thomas and Bartholomew in India (see above, p. 74), William of Malmsbury remarks that the journey was made with great success, “at which everybody in this age wonders” (Gesta regum Anglorum, II, 122, edited by William Stubbs (Rolls Series, no. 90), 2 vols., London, 1887).
