king of See also:Desmond, who had sought See also:refuge with Malchus, and, when he subsequently regained his See also:kingdom, rendered See also:great services to Malachy
.
On his return from Lismore, Malachy undertook the See also:government of the decayed monastery of See also:Bangor (in Co
.
Down), but very soon afterwards he was elected bishop of See also:Connor (now a small See also:village near See also:Ballymena)
.
After the See also:sack of that See also:place by the king of See also:Ulster he withdrew into Munster; here he was kindly received by Cormac MacCarthy, with whose assistance he built the monastery of Ibrach (in See also:Kerry)
.
Meanwhile he had been designated by Celsus (in whose family the see of Armagh had been hereditary for many years) to succeed him in the See also:arch-bishopric; in the interests of reform he reluctantly accepted the dignity, and thus became involved for some years in a struggle with the so-called heirs
.
Having finally settled the See also:diocese, he was permitted, as had been previously stipulated by himself, to return to his former diocese, or rather to the smaller and poorer portion of it, the bishopric of Down
.
Although the Roman party had by this time obtained a See also:firm hold in the See also:north of Ire-See also:land, the organization of the Church had not yet received the See also:sanction of the See also:pope
.
Accordingly, in 1139, Malachy set out from Ireland with the purpose of soliciting from the pope the See also:pallium (the token of archiepiscopal subjection to Rome) for the arch-bishop of Armagh
.
On his way to Rome he visited See also:Clairvaux, and thus began a lifelong friendship with St See also:Bernard
.
Malachy was received by See also:Innocent II. with great See also:honour, and made papal legate in Ireland, though the pope refused to See also:- GRANT (from A.-Fr. graunter, O. Fr. greanter for creanter, popular Lat. creantare, for credentare, to entrust, Lat. credere, to believe, trust)

grant the pallium until it had been unanimously applied for " by a See also:general See also:council of the bishops, See also:clergy and nobles." On his way See also:home Malachy revisited Clairvaux, and took with him from there four members of the Cistercian order, by whom the See also:abbey of Mellifont (in the See also:county of See also:Louth) was afterwards founded in 1141
.
For the next eight years after his return from Rome Malachy was active in the See also:discharge of his legatine duties, and in 1148, at a See also:synod of bishops and clergy held at Inis-See also:Patrick (St Patrick's See also:Island, near Skerries, Co
.
See also:Dublin), he was commissioned to return to Rome and make fresh application for the pallium; he did not, however, get beyond Clairvaux, where he died in the arms of St Bernard on the 2nd of See also:November 1148
.
The See also:object of his See also:life was realized four years afterwards, in 1152, during the legateship of his successor
.
Malachy was canonized by See also:Clement III. in 1190
.
The See also:influence of Malachy in Irish ecclesiastical affairs has been compared with that of See also:Boniface in See also:Germany
.
He reformed and reorganized the Irish Church and brought it into subjection to Rome; like Bonif See also:ace, he was a zealous reformer and a See also:promoter of See also:monasticism
.
But perhaps his See also:chief claim to distinction is that of having opened the first Cistercian monastery in Ireland, five more being soon afterwards established
.
Several See also:works are attributed to him, but are all probably See also:spurious
.
The most curious of these is a Prophecy concerning the Future Roman Pontiffs, which has produced an extensive literature
.
It is now generally attributed to the See also:year 1590, and is supposed to have been forged to support the See also:election of See also:Cardinal Simoncelli to the papal See also:chair
