[1099] It is plain from - 7 that this sermon was preached on an anniversary of Malachy's death, _i.e._ on November 2, in a year later than 1148. I put it in 1149 because of its striking coincidences with the _Life_, which was written early in that year (see p. lxv). There is also a possible echo (- 3) of _De Cons._ i. which belongs to the same year (_P.L._ clx.x.xii. 723). These, together with two coincidences of phrase with other writings of St. Bernard, are pointed out in the notes. See _R.I.A._ x.x.xv. 260 ff.

[1132] The story is told much more fully in _Life_, -- 58, 59; where there are many similarities in phraseology to the present pa.s.sage. In both places it is connected with the miraculous blinding of the king, immediately preceding it here, immediately following it there.
