5th century. Saint Patrician was driven from his Scottish see by heathen invaders. He lived out the rest of his days on the Isle of Man (Benedictines).

Troparion of St Patrician
Tone 1
Driven from the See in Strathclyde by the Saxon hordes,
thou wast sheltered by the Manx people
to whom thou didst preach the life-giving Gospel of Christ,
O Hierarch Patrician.
In thy patience and love for all, remember those who now cry to thee
and beseech Christ our God that He will save our souls.
