Intravit autem primo monasterium Mailros, quod in ripa Tuidi fluminis positum, tunc abbas Eata, vir omnium mansuetissimus ac simplicissimus regebat: qui postea episcopus Hagustaldensis, sive Lindisfarnensis ecclesiae factus est, ut supra memoravimus: cui tempore illo praepositus Boisil magnarum virtutum et prophetici spiritus sacerdos fuit.
Now he entered first into the monastery of Melrose, which standeth on the bank of the river Tweed, and was at that time governed of abbot Eata, the meekest and most sincere of men: who afterward was made bishop of the church of Hexham and Lindisfarne, as we have fore said: and over this monastery at that time Boisil was provost, a priest of great virtues and of a prophetical spirit.
