	Amy Steedman: Saint Bridget of Ireland
		She is such a homelike saint this Bridget of the fair green island, and she dwells so close to the heart of the people, that it is their common everyday life which holds the most loving memory of her helpful kindness.
		Bridget was a strange thoughtful child, fond of learning, but clever with her hands as well as her head.
		Far and near the fame of Bridget spread, not only in Ireland but over many lands, and the love of her became so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, that even to-day her memory is like a green tree bearing living leaves of faith and affection.
