I am pretty sure that Tom Head has included a translation of this tract by Guibert in his latest compilation of hagiographic material which he edited. I know he recently translated it (because I read it) and I'm pretty sure he told me that it was for the volume he was in the process of editing. I forget the name of it -- but I remember it was listed by Tom Izbicki in his tremendously appreciated "new titles" list some time in the last few months. Anyhow, its out there and easily accessible. celia gaposchkin %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
