BEGH, or BEE (in Latin BEGA), was of Irish parentage, and fled to England to escape a marriage which her parents had planned for her, having the holy purpose of consecrating her virginity to God. On her first landing, she is said to have found refuge on the promontory still known as St. Bee's Head, in Cumberland, where in after-years there was a cell of monks, depending on the Abbey of St. Mary's, in York. Bega received the religious habit from the Bishop St. Aidan, and is reported to have been the first so professed in Britain. The subsequent history of her life is unknown, unless she be the same with St. Hieu, or the Begu, mentioned by St. Bede, as some have supposed." "The English people is blessed in having the privilege of venerating two saints, both of whom are known as Apostles of the English, St Gregory and St Augustine. The history of England begins with them."
