Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Gyrovague" in English language version.
St. Benedict severely criticized 'gyratory monks' who wandered from place to place without a regular home or a fixed order of life.
Quartum vero genus est monachorum quod nominatur girovagum, qui tota vita sua per diversas provincias ternis aut quaternis diebus per diversorum cellas hospitantur, semper vagi et numquam stabiles, et propriis voluntatibus et guilæ inlecebris servientes, et per omnia deteriores sarabaitis. De quorum omnium horum miserrima conversatione melius est silere quam loqui.
