Erat enim presbyter vitae venerabilis, nomine Hereberct, iamdudum viro Dei spiritalis amicitiae foedere copulatus; qui in insula stagni illius pergrandis de quo Deruuentionis fluvii primordia erumpunt, vitam ducens solitariam, annis singulis eum visitare et monita ab eo perpetuae salutis audire solebat.
For there was a priest worthy of veneration in his life, by name Herbert, which had a long time been coupled to the man of God in the bond of spiritual friendship; and he living a solitary life in the island of that great wide lake from which break forth the beginnings of the river Derwent, was wont to visit Cuthbert every year and hear the lessons of eternal salvation at his mouth.
