This is the first edition of the life of St Modwenna, an obscure Irish saint whose bones supposedly came to rest in the West Midlands abbey of Burton. Abbot Geoffrey of Burton's account of her life sheds much light on the Latinity, religious attitudes, and historical consciousness of this Benedictine author, while his collection of miracle-stories associated with her shrine is an immensely valuable source for the social and religious history of England in the twelfth century.
