The Devil preached to the monks below.
The Devil's Pulpit is a limestone outcrop above the River Wye looking down on Tintern Abbey. Wikipedia says the Devil taunted the monks from here. Visit Dean Wye says he made it to preach to them, then asked to preach from the abbey roof, where the monks drove him off with holy water.
