Marie Of Oignies Life story
Marie of Oignies was a Beguine saint, known from the Life written by James of Vitry, for Fulk of Toulouse. Marie "did not live a cloistered life following an approved rule, but rather adopted a free form of devout life marked by strenuous asceticism and manual labour, as well as mystical gifts of a new kind."
