Qui natus in territorio eiusdem monasterii, cum essem annorum septem, cura propinquorum datus sum educandus reverentissimo abbati Benedicto, ac deinde Ceolfrido; cunctumque ex eo tempus vitae in eiusdem monasterii habitatione peragens, omnem meditandis Scripturis operam dedi: atque inter observantiam disciplinae regularis et quotidianam cantandi in ecclesia curam, semper aut discere, aut docere, aut scribere dulce habui.
Who being born in the territory of the same monastery, when I was 7 years of age, was delivered up by the hands of my kinsfolk to be brought up of the most reverend abbot Benedict, and afterward of Ceolfrid; and from that time spending all the days of my life in the mansion of the same monastery, I have applied all my diligence to the study of the Scriptures; and observing the regular discipline and keeping the daily service of singing in the church, I have taken delight always either to learn, or to teach, or to write.
