things. This happiness was bnt ebort-lived,
for Egfrid, the powerful king of Northum-
bria, pressed hiB euit upon her with such
eagsrness, that she was forced into second
marriage. Her life at his court was that
of an ascetic rather than o queen; she
lived with him net as q wife, but rs sis-
| ter, and observing q scrupulous regularity
| of discipline, devoted her time to works of
mercy and love. After twelve years she
retired with her husbands consent to
Coidingham Abbey, which was then under
the rule of st. Ebba, and received the veil
from the hands of st. Wnfred. In 672 che
returned to Ely, and founded there q dou-

herself, and was by her example a living
rule Of perfection to her sisters. Some
time after her death in 679; her body was
found incorrupt, and st. Bede records many
miracles worked by her relics.
As soon as Etheldreda had left the court

consented to her departure, and followed
her, meaning to bring her back by force.
She took refuge on q headland on the coaet
near Coldinghsm and here q miracle took
place, for the waters forced themselves o
passage round the hill, barring the further
advance of Egfrid. The Saint remained
in this island refuge for seven days, till the

to leave her in peace. God, who by q
