Lambert, St

The Oxford Dictionary of Phrase and Fable | 2006 | | Copyright

Lambert, St (c.635–c.705), bishop of Maastricht and patron of Liége; he was venerated as a martyr because his violent death was attributed by later biographers to his having reproved the Frankish ruler Pepin II (687–714) for adultery. His feast day is 17 September.
