241 of the Danes, who from success had become remiss, and watched the earliest opportunity of again placing- himself at the head of his followers, who had lately gained some slight advantage over their enemies. In order to ascertain the state of the Danish army, he disguised himself as a harper, entered their camp and played for the amusement of the soldiers ; he was even introduced to Guthrum, the Danish prince, in whose tent he remained for several days.
Having thus learned in person the ungu...arded condition of the Danes, he returned to his followers, and placing himself at their head, he attacked the enemy by surprise, and routed them with great slaughter.

Having subdued the enemies of his country and re- stored peace to his kingdom, Alfred turned his attention towards repairing the evils they had caused, and improving the moral condition of his subjects. He invited to his do- minions the most eminent scholars from all parts of Europe ; established schools for the instruction of his people ; founded the Unwersitij of Oxford, composed a code of laws, and, according to many historians, he established the trial by jury, and translated various works into the Saxon language.
