INCIPIT

Prologus in vitam sancti Huberti. _ Vitam et martyrium beati Lamberti Tungrensis episcopi describentes, dignum duximus paucis interserere nonnullos illius diebus in laicali habitu fuisse qui monitis et exemplis tanti patris animati, ob amorem caelestis patriae spretis divitiarum suarum illecebris ad arctiorum vitam se contulerunt.

EXPLICIT

Sed de vita et miraculis quae in episcopopatu gessit, quae quidem ex libros domini Jonae episcopi, qui inter ceteros familiari ei contubernio adhaesit, decerpens meo opusculo alibi indidi, hic aliquid retexere supersedi.
