In retirement he was Chaplain to the Society of Saint Margaret. He was a leading expert on the medieval English mystics and produced what are still regarded by most as the outstanding modern English translations of ''The Cloud of Unknowing'', Julian of Norwich, and Richard Rolle for Penguin Classics. He was much sought after as a Spiritual Director and Retreat Conductor as well as by conferences on the medieval mystics.
