Excerpt from Illustrations of the History of Great Britain, Vol. 1 of 2: An Historical View of the Manners and Customs, Dresses, Literature, Arts, Commerce, and Government of Great Britain; From the Time of the Saxons, Down to the Eighteenth Century Within the space of 150 years, they had become possessed of about one half of the southern divi sion of Britain; whilst the natives had gradually retreated before them, and with all the property they could preserve, sought an asylum in the hills and forests, and especially in the mountains, co yering the Western parts of this Island. It is sup posed that the Saxons called this district Gwalles, considering the Britons as Gauls; their language being named Gwallish, whence are said to have been derived the modern words Wales and Welsh. The Britons themselves, however, are asserted to have called their country Cambria, to commemo rate their own ancient name of Cymry, which the Welsh still retain. But beside these domestic co lonists, others of the persecuted Britons entirely abandoned their native country; and, under the conduct of their Chiefs and Prelates, crossed the sea, and took possession of the desolate lands on the western coast of Armorica; and having sub dued the neighbouring settlements, they called the district Bretagne, or Brittany, in memory of that country whence they had departed.
