<p> | <p> abbot of the monastery of Neridan, near Naples. [[Pope]] [[Vitalian]] selected him to fill the vacant see of Canterbury, but he refused, and induced the pope to select [[Theodore]] instead, promising that he would accompany him. Accordingly Theodore was consecrated in 668; and upon their arrival in England, after a very long journey, [[Adrian]] was made abbot of the monastery of St. [[Augustine]] at Canterbury. By their united efforts the Church in [[England]] was brought into strict conformity with that of Rome. He died January 9th, 709. '''''—''''' Bede, Hist. Ecclesiastes 4, 1; Hook, Eccl. Biog. 1, 66. </p> | ||
