Sexhelm of Lindisfarne

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sexhelm of Lindisfarne (died 947) was Bishop of Lindisfarne for six months in 947.

He was probably the Sexhelm mentioned in Walter Scott's Marmion:

Was by the prelate Sexhelm made
A place of burial for such dead
As, having died in mortal sin,
Might not be laid the church within.
