PREFATORY NOTE. 
 
 THE twenty-two manuscripts here described were last cata- 
 logued by Thomas Hartwell Home in his full catalogue of 
 the College Library (2 vols. 1827). The description will be found 
 in vol. II, p. 999. On pp. 997-999 he gives a list of the Oriental 
 manuscripts in the Library, thirteen in number. The Western 
 Manuscripts are numbered from 14 to 47. The collection as it 
 now stands is not of the highest interest. The finest book is 
 probably the gloss on the Psalms (nos. 5, 6) : the rarest perhaps 
 the treatise of Wycliffe De veritate sanctae scriphirae (no. 15). 
 
 One manuscript which should follow no. 3 was missing in 1867 
 and has not been discoverable since. It is thus described by Home 
 
 "No. 17. Summa Raymundi de Pennaforti Barciuocensis (sic) ordinis 
 Praedicatorum. 
 
 A MS. on vellum in 4to. of cent. xiii. The following note appears on 
 the flyleaf: Raymundus Barchionensis Capellanus Gregorii IX, scripsit 
 Gregorii vitam ad initium Decretalium Epistolarum : obiit 1275. 
 Hujus auxilio Decretales compilavit Gregorius anno 1235. Gregorii 
 jussu in unum volumen, 5 Libris Distinctionum, Epistolas Decretales 
 Summorum Pontificum collegit. Vide Bellarm. de Script. Eccl." 
 
 The book is a very common one, and its loss is not to be 
 deeply regretted. 
 
 I have not gone further in my descriptions than Home's 
 number 35. For the remaining books I have allowed his short 
 notes to suffice, and I do not suppose my readers will blame me 
 very sharply. 
 
 The catalogue of the old library of the College, which was of 
 great interest, and disappeared, like so many others, in the sixteenth 
 century, has been admirably edited by the Rev. W. G. Searle, M.A.,

 Binding original, of the xiith century. Wooden boards covered 
 with calf's (?) skin (with the hair on): edges prolonged into a flap at 
 top and bottom. The boards have brass ornaments nailed upon 
 them, viz.: Each cover has four rectangular corner-pieces and six 
 more tongued pieces on the edges : two on each longer side, one at 
 top and one at bottom. Most of these have engraved ornaments 
 consisting of concentric or intersecting circles. There have besides 
 been five circular bosses on each cover, which are now gone. In 
 the second cover are two holes which seem to indicate that the 
 book was fastened by a double strap and pin. 
 
 Given by Francis Tyndall (cent. xvii). 
 
 On the verso of the flyleaf is an erased inscription of the 
 monastic provenance of the book. 2 fo. et desudet.

 On f. 23 b appears Johannes. 
 
 Ends with Ps. lxxix Qui regis Israel. Gloss ends f. 169*. 
 per ipsum sub trinitate quisque quod expedit implorat. 
 
 The initials are remarkable throughout. A good many have 
 their original red silk guards left The principal colours employed 
 are gold (not burnished), lightish blue, green, orange-scarlet and 
 pink. The main divisions of the Psalter (into seven nocturnes and 
 into three fifties) are distinguished by large initials. The opening 
 words of these psalms were to have been written in gold capitals : 
 but this has been neglected except in the case of Beatus vir and 
 Saluum me fac (lxviii).

 Kyneburga is here, not the Saint of Caister (near Peterborough)

 of Gloucester. 
 
 There is nothing distinctive in the Hymnary save a Hymn for 
 St Benedict which points to the monastic provenance of the book. 
 
 In respect of its decoration this is an interesting and beautiful 
 book. The 'line-fillings' are of the kind that I have been 
 accustomed to associate with East Anglian productions. They 
 are mostly in blue outline, and represent fishes or else grotesques 
 with human heads. Each Psalm has a good gold initial, generally 
 decorative in design sometimes containing animal forms. The 
 historiated initials are as follows : 
 
 1. Beatus vir. Large initial and border on two sides of the page. The border 
 contains a half-length archer in red shooting upwards at an animal seated at top. The 
 
17] queens' college library. 
 
 21 
 
 initial has burnished gold ground and contains two pictures. Above: David crowned, 
 seated playing a harp. Below: David in red tunic, stones in lap, and sling. Goliath 
 on R. in a sitting posture, with red mail, blue surcoat, and scimitar. 
 
 Ps. ii, iii and others have their initials extended into a partial border. 
 
 Domine ne in furore. Ps. vi has a half-length praying figure on gold ground. After 
 Ps. xiv the initials are simpler. 
 
 2. Ps. xxvii. Dominus illuminatio. On L. David, and a boy holding a glove, and 
 another stand : on R. a Bishop in mitre and blue chasuble over alb speaks to them. 
 
 3. Ps. xxxviii. Dixi custodiam. David kneels with hand pointing to his face. 
 Above on R. the Divine Hand in a red cloud. 
 
 4. Ps. Ii. Quid gloriaris. Gold ground with hatched lines. A warrior in red mail 
 and blue surcoat about to behead a kneeling tonsured man. 
 
 5. Ps. Hi. Dixit insipiens. On L. the fool, bald and clad only in a short cloak, 
 stands holding a stick and eating a cake. David throned on R. 
 
 6. Ps. lxviii. Saluum me fac. In two divisions. Above, Christ half-length with 
 red cross-nimbus and globe blessing. Below, David half-length nude, crowned in water. 
 
 7. Ps. Ixxxi. Exultate. David sits playing on two bells hung from a red beam, 
 with a long-headed hammer in each hand. This initial ends in a tailed and lion-headed 
 man playing the harp. 
 
 8. Ps. xcvii. Cantate. Three tonsured clerks in copes red blue and pink before a 
 lectern with an open book, which the foremost handles. 
 
 9. Ps. ci. Exaudi. David kneels and prays. Above, on R. is Christ's head in a 
 red cloud. 
 
 10. Ps. cix. Dixit Dominus. A blank page precedes it. The Father and Son in 
 blue over red, and cross-nimbi, each with a book, seated. The Dove above in the centre 
 in a red cloud. 
 
 n. Hymns, f. 178. lux beata Trinitas. Italian Trinity. The Father cross- 
 nimbed seated holds the Crucified Son before Him. Above, outside the initial, the Dove. 
 
 12. f. 1 86*. Advent Hymns. Conditor alme syderum. Christ stands on L. blessing. 
 On R. a kneeling figure : above his head a red cloud with white stars.

 It is a very handsomely illuminated Roll of History from the 
 Creation to Edward IV, continued to Henry VII and Arthur 
 Prince of Wales. 
 
 The principal feature at first is the genealogy of Christ : after 
 that, the British and English kings. The ancient empires Egypt, 
 Assyria, etc. are given. 
 
 At top is a good border of feather-work and colour, and the 
 text begins in four columns. 
 
 a. Ueterum cronicorum narraciones ac b. Adam in agro damasceno formatus. 
 
 sacre historie solacia. 
 c. In principio creauit deus. d. Non solum audiendis sacre historie 
 
 uestri. 
 
 The genealogies begin with a medallion containing a good 
 picture of the Fall. The serpent has a human head and arms. 
 The line proceeds with medallions framed alternately in red and 
 blue on gold, back bare bordered with blue. 
 
 Large medallions for pictures are left at Noe Abraham David 
 Sedechias Christus. 
 
 Every name of a king is surmounted by a crown of burnished 
 gold. This gives a fine effect to the whole. 
 
 Towards the end there is on the L. the line of Popes, then the 
 Kings of France, and then those of England, and their progeny. 
 The text decreases in amount and at the end consists of a memorial 
 distich and a short paragraph on each king. The last paragraph is 
 on Edward IV ending : 
 
 Et coronatus est in regem anglie apud Westmonasterium a Thoma Bourgchier Cantuar. 
 Archiep. xxviii die mensis Junii a.d. m°. cccc. lxi°. 
 
 Richard III, Henry VII and their queens and Arthurus princeps 
 Wallie follow. Their crowns are differently drawn from the rest 
 and mostly have red caps in them. 
 
 Henry VII, Katherine of Arragon and a few other names are 
 added by a third hand quite roughly. 
 
 There are many similar Chronicle-Rolls in existence: one in the 
 Pepysian Library (also bound into a volume) recalls this in general 
 aspect, but is I think earlier in date.
