A frog in the throat

On one occasion when Aelred was returning from a visit to Scotland he encountered a man whose stomach was extremely swollen; his eyes were blood-shot and his neck had all but disappeared so that he looked like a fat ox or sheep. Aelred came to the poor man’s rescue. He immediately jumped off his horse, inserted two fingers down the man’s throat and invoked God. The words had hardly left his lips when a frog, that he had apparently swallowed when drinking from a stream and which had then grown within him, eating his entrails, jumped out of his mouth.
