Susceptum itaque episcopatum gentis Merciorum simul et Lindisfarorum Ceadda, iuxta exempla patrum antiquorum, in magna vitae perfectione administrare curavit: cui etiam rex Vulfheri donavit terram quinquaginta familiarum, ad construendum monasterium in loco qui dicitur Adbaruae, id est, Ad Nemus, in provincia Lindissi, in quo usque hodie instituta ab ipso regularis vitae vestigia permanent.
Chad accordingly, being made bishop of the Marchmen as much as of Lindsey, did diligently govern the same after the example of the ancient fathers in great perfection of life: and king Wulfhere also gave unto him the land of 50 households to build a monastery in the place that is called Adbarwae, that is By the Wood, in the province of Lindsey, where until this day the steps of monastical life which Chad established there do yet remain.
