acquainted with the philosophical principles of Aristotle. A student of natural
philosophy, astronomy, arithmetic, grammar and Church history he
wrote extensively about the Lives of the Saints and Holy
Scripture.

considered one of the seminal works of Anglo-Saxon history and is considered
fundamental to the English national identity. Feast Day 25th May.
Bede died in 735 praying his favourite prayer: “Glory be to the
Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As in the beginning, so now,
and forever.”
