Saint Hilda was an English princess, who at 33, consecrated her life to God as a nun. St. Bede chronicled her life of virtue and intellectual brilliance. She was the Abbess of a double monastery of monks and nuns that was a religious center that revered Scripture studies in Whitby. In the last 7 years of her life she suffered from a high fever that didn’t stop her from doing her work. She died peacefully in 680.
