I am a sinner, a simple country person, and the least of all believers. I am looked down upon by many. My father was Calpornius. He was a deacon; his father was Potitus, a priest, who lived at BannavemTaburniae. His home was near there, and that is where I was taken prisoner. I was about sixteen at the time. At that time, I did not know the true God. I was taken into captivity in Ireland, along with thousands of others. We deserved this, because we had gone away from God, and did not keep his commandments.

  11. Rules of St Columbanus • At the first word of a superior [those in charge] all must rise to obey, because by obeying him they obey God. • The rule of silence must be carefully observed, for it is written: ‘The service of justice shall be quietness and peace.’ • The food of the monks shall be coarse, consisting of cabbage, vegetables, flour mixed with water, and a biscuit, and taken toward evening lest the stomach be burdened and the mind confused. Gorging (eating greedily) must be guarded against in eating, and drunkenness in drinking. • While the monks will have much in heaven, on earth they should be satisfied with the small possessions of greatest need. • Let the monk live in a community under the discipline of one father and in company with many, so that from one he may learn lowliness, from another, patience.
