(1393-1447) Augustinian friar and poet, born Old Buckenham, Norfolk, England. His writings are mainly religious. The "Lyvys of Seyntys" does not merit serious consideration from modern hagiologists, but is of decided historical value as showing the evolution of English literature; it is written in the Suffolk dialect.
