In Britain in the year 300 BC
Lived most of the people of Breton ancestry

But a small number had travelled far
Across the Channel to Armorica

In the year 50 BC
Armorica became Roman territory

A century later, Britain too
To Rome began to pay her due

Armorica was under Roman sway
But the Britons kept more of their own way

While Roman rule appeared to win
The Britons stayed Celts beneath the skin

When Romanisation of Britain was done
The Christian missionaries followed on

But the Celtic Christian Lore
Had links with the Druids who went before
