Martha Hatfield (also known as The Wise Virgin) (fl. 1652) was an English Puritan prophet. Hatfield was born in Leighton, North Yorkshire, England in the 17th century. Her parents were Faith Westley and Anthony Hatfield. In April 1652, Hatfield became ill with a type of catalepsy. She became paralyzed, blind, deaf and mute. This lasted for seventeen days. When she recovered she began "rambling" about religious subjects and started quoting scriptures.
