2. Astonished at the great truths which they had learned and penetrated with the most profound sentiments which religion inspires, they travelled into the Belgic Gaul there to find some religious houses and schools of virtue, which were then scarce in England.
3. Such was the progress of these holy men that they soon were judged fit to be themselves masters. Nor was it long before St Adulph became Bishop of Maastricht, which he administered in so holy a manner, that he is honoured in France among the saints on the 17th of June.
