Ethelbert thanked them for coming s far to try to do his people good. "Your words are fair," said he, "but of doubtful meaning. My people may do as they like, but the gods and my fathers are good enough for me." It is said that the delighted face of Queen Bertha, however, showed Augustine and his missionaries that she knew that all was well, and within twelve months Ethelbert himself with ten thousand of his subjects became Christians.
