Cuius regni principio defuncto Eata episcopo, Iohannes, vir sanctus, Hagustaldensis ecclesiae praesulatum suscepit: de quo plura virtutum miracula qui eum familiariter noverunt dicere solent, et maxime vir reverentissimus ac veracissimus Bercthun, diaconus quondam eius, nunc autem abbas monasterii quod vocatur Inderauuda, id est, In Silva Derorum: e quibus aliqua memoriae tradere commodum duximus.
And in the beginning of this king his reign, when bishop Eata was dead, John a holy man took the prelacy of Hexham church upon him: of whom his near acquaintance are wont to report many mighty miracles, and specially amongst other Berthun, sometime his deacon, but now abbot of the monastery called Inderauuda, that is to say, In the Wood of the Deirans, a man of great reverence and credit for his truth: of some of which miracles we have thought good to bear record.
