Saints celebrated on the 21st of June
Lambert (Lambertus), Bishop of the Morines, i.e. of Therouanne in Picardy, is known to have amply decorated his church with books and ornaments.
He is called "venerable" by the hagiographer Ado*. As the Bollandists* remark (III. 611), April 29 is the date of a translation of his relics and he died on June 21, but the year of his death is not specified by this source. They list him among the Praetermissi on June 21. (IV. 65).
According to Zedler* (42, 1065), who refers to him as Kambinus, he was the 33rd bishop of Therouanne and died in 1207.
