Qui accepto gradu episcopatus rediit ad provinciam, et maiore auctoritate coeptum opus explens, fecit per loca ecclesias, presbyteros et diaconos ordinavit, qui se in verbo fidei et ministerio baptizandi adiuvarent, maxime in civitate quae lingua Saxonum Ythancaestir appellatur, sed et in illa quae Tilaburg cognominatur: quorum prior locus est in ripa Pentae amnis, secundus in ripa Tamensis: in quibus collecto examine famulorum Christi, disciplinam vitae regularis, in quantum rudes adhuc capere poterant, custodiri docuit.
And he, having now taken the degree of bishop, returned to his province, and perfecting with more authority the work he had begun, he made churches in divers places, ordained priests and deacons to aid him in the word of faith and the ministry of baptizing, especially in the city which in the Saxon tongue is called Ythancaestir, and, moreover, in that which is named Tilaburg: of which the first is a place on the bank of the river Penta, the second on the bank of the Thames: in which places, assembling together a multitude of servants of Christ, he instructed them for the keeping of the rules of monastic life, as far as their tender capacity could then conceive.
