He led a See also:life of the severest See also:asceticism, and was credited with the See also:power of working miracles; owing to his reputation the See also:numbers of Rievaulx were greatly increased. In 1164 he went as a missionary to the Picts of See also:Galloway. He found their See also:religion at a See also:low ebb, the See also:regular See also:clergy apathetic and sensual, the See also:bishop little obeyed, the laity divided by the See also:family feuds of their rulers, unchaste and ignorant. He induced a Galwegian See also:chief to take the See also:habit of religion, and restored the See also:peace of the See also:country. Two years later he died of a decline, at Rievaulx, in the fifty-seventh year of his See also:age. In the year 1191 he was canonized. His writings are voluminous and have never been completely published. Amongst them are homilies " on the See also:burden of See also:Babylon in See also:Isaiah "; three books " on spiritual friendship "; a life of See also:Edward the See also:Confessor; an See also:account of miracles wrought at Hexham, and the See also:tract called Relatio de Standardo. This last is an account of the See also:Battle of the See also:Standard (1138), better known than the similar account by See also:Richard of Hexham, but less trustworthy, and in places obscured by a peculiarly turgid See also:rhetoric.
See the Vita Alredi in See also:John of See also:Tynemouth's Nova Legenda Anglie (ed. C. Horstmann, 1901, vol. i. p. 41), whence it was taken by See also:Capgrave.
