Saint Hyglac
Hyglac was an eighth century Catholic saint from Anglo-Saxon England. Very little is known of the life of this saint and he is known to history through the hagiography of the Secgan Manuscript. However, he is best known through a letter from an anchorite Alchfrid (also known as Alcheriðus). In the letter, Hyglac is a lector of an unknown monastery in Northumbria (possibly York). The letter, an exhortation to live a Godly Life, appears to be text borrowed from the different sermons of various priests. It is preserved in a collection of letters of Alcuin.
