Gwenllian was placed in the Priory at Sempringham, where she was held behind high walls until her death fifty-four years later. In committing her to a convent, Edward's aim was not only to prevent her from marrying and having sons who might lay claim to the Principality of Wales, but also to hide her away, unknown to the outside world. He chose because of its remote location and there was an order in which nuns were hidden from view behind high walls. Edward I offered the Prior and Prioress 20 pounds a year for taking Princess in.

Kaheksa-aastaselt läks Hildegard vanemate käsul kloostrisse, kus ta õppis lugemist ning kirjutamist nunn Jutta käe all. 18-aastaselt ühines tabenediktlaste orduga. Peale Jutta surma 1136. aastal sai Hildegardist prioress ning aastal 1147 otsustas ta kloostri kogukonnaga kolida Rupertsbergi Bingenis, kus ta sai kloostri abtissiks. Hiljem rajas ta mitmeid teisi nunnakloostreid. Hildegard oli mõjuvõimas naine, kes pidas aru nii paavstide kui keisritega. Ajaloos poldud teda enne 16. sajandit pühakuks kanoniseeritud, ehkki seda üritati mitmeid kordi (viimane toimus 1244. aastal). 16. sajandi lõpus nimetati ta ilma ametliku kanoniseeringuta pühakuks, tema püha päeva tähistatakse 17. septembril.
Rituaalmõrv Rituaalmõrvad on pärit vanaajast, kuid kristlased kasutasid seda süüdistust juutide vastu XII sajandi Inglismaal. Kuulduste kohaselt tapnud juudid kristlaste lapsi oma rituaalide teostamiseks ja seda eriti enne ülestõusmispühi. Neid fabritseeritud süüdistusi tunti ka veresüü laimu nime all. Selle süü alusel sai oletatavatest ohvritest kultus, mis põhjustas tuhandete inimelude huku kogu Euroopas. Väikese Lincolni Hugh lugu pandi kirja ka Chauceri raamatus Prioress' Tale (nunnakloostri ülema lugu). 1880-1945 oli rituaalmõrvade vale levinud ka Ida-Euroopa keskosas roomakatoliiklaste ja idaortodokssete kristlaste hulgas. Natside ajaleht Der Stürmer (Vintpüss) kujutas pidevalt rabisid saksa laste verd imemas. 13 Hostia (pühitsetud armulaualeiva) rüvetamine Samamoodi süüdistati juute Püha Õhtusöömaaja ehk hostia pühade elementide rüvetamises otsekui püüaksid nad Kristust uuesti risti lüüa.
