The Hungarian Wisdom St. Stephen, King of Hungary (969-1038): Concerning the Reception of Foreigners, and the Support of Strangers. In strangers and men from abroad there is such great utility that it can be held worthy the sixth place in regal dignity. For as strangers come from diverse regions of the provinces, they bring with them diverse languages and usages, and diverse learning and arms, all of which not only adorn the royal palace and render magnificent the court, but also abash the arrogance of aliens. For a kingdom of one tongue, or of one custom, is weak and fragile. Wherefore I bid you, my son, support those persons with a good will, and treat them fairly, that they may prefer to continue with you rather than to live elsewhere.
