14. Near to the monastery in which the man of God was then staying,
there was an island, which certain worldly men inhabited, whose uproar
used greatly to disturb the men of God. Whence it happened that
blessed Keranus, compelled by their disquietude, made his way to the
lake, and giving himself up wholly to prayer, succeeded in obtaining
the removal of those who were distressing the servants of God. For
when he ceased from prayer, behold, suddenly the island with the lake
and the inhabitants withdrew to a remote place, so that by no means
could its inhabitants disturb the friends of the Most High. For this
miracle was done in His Name Who overturned Sodom on account of the
sin of its inhabitants, and consumed it with fire. The traces of that
lake, where it formerly was, still exist.
