Read the following excerpt from the venerable bede's an ecclesiastical history of the english people. in this excerpt, the author describes a period just after the britons had repelled attacks by the picts, a tribe of invaders from the north. which lines most closely illustrate how bede's religion influenced his view of events?
now, when the ravages of the enemy at length abated, the island began to abound with such plenty of grain as had never been known in any age before; along with plenty, evil living increased, and this was immediately attended by the taint of all manner of crime; in particular, cruelty, hatred of truth, and love of falsehood; insomuch, that if any one among them happened to be milder than the rest, and more inclined to truth, all the rest abhorred and persecuted him unrestrainedly, as if he had been the enemy of in the meantime, on a sudden, a grievous plague fell upon that corrupt generation, which soon destroyed such numbers of them, that the living scarcely availed to bury the dead: yet, those that survived, could not be recalled from the spiritual death, which they had incurred through their sins, either by the death of their friends, or the fear of death. whereupon, not long after, a more severe vengeance for their fearful crimes fell upon the sinful nation. they held a council to determine what was to be done, and where they should seek to prevent or repel the cruel and frequent incursions of the northern nations; and in concert with their king vortigern, it was unanimously decided to call the saxons to their aid from beyond the sea, which, as the event plainly showed, was brought about by the lord's will, that evil might fall upon them for their wicked deeds.
