Life of St. Cuthbert
Bede's prose Life of Cuthbert, bishop of Lindisfarne (d. 687), written about 721 from the testimony of Cuthbert's own companions and expanding the earlier anonymous Lindisfarne Life: the shepherd boy and the vision of Aidan's soul, the hermit of Farne, the reluctant bishop, the miracles of his incorrupt body. Latin text of Migne (PL 94); English translation of J. A. Giles as given by the Fordham Medieval Sourcebook.
