text:
Adelard of Ghent was an early 11th-century monk and hagiographer from the Benedictine monastery Saint Peter's Abbey, Ghent, now in modern-day Belgium. He was commissioned by Archbishop Ælfheah of Canterbury to produce a piece of hagiography on Saint Dunstan. Sometime between 1006 and 1011, Adelard composed a series of twelve lections to be used as liturgy for the office of matins on the feast-day of St Dunstan for Ælfheah. Adelard wrote the lections at his home monastery at St Peter's.
