Canonised 1250 and her feast day is 16th November. In 1057 she arrived at the
English court of Edward the Confessor. Ten years later she was in exile after
William defeated Harold at the Battle of Hastings. She fled to Scotland where
she was married against her wishes to King Malcolm to whom she bore six sons
and two daughters. Her unlerned and boorish husband grew daily more graceful
and Christian under the queen's graceful influence.
Her remains were removed to Escorial Spain and her head Douai, France.
