PREFACE, 
 
 It was at one time my intention to have printed 
 a catalogue of all the manuscripts in the various 
 libraries of the University, but, upon considera- 
 tion, I concluded that it would not be well for 
 a private individual to undertake the accomplish- 
 ment of such a work, unless it were pubHshed 
 under the immediate superintendence of the Uni- 
 versity authorities. A Catalogue of the Cambridge 
 Manuscripts by a Member of the University, would 
 be liable to imperfect criticism out of doors, as 
 proceeding from and sanctioned by the University 
 itself. I was unwilling to subject my Alma Mater 
 to the possibility of any attack being instituted 
 on the ground of not performing its undertakings 
 with proper effect ; I was fully aware that I could 
 not effectually guard against such an attack ; and 
 I have, therefore, preferred to offer the following 
 pages to the reader, as mere rough notes of a 
 
IV 
 
 few of the inestimable treasures, in the department 
 of manuscripts, which our noble and ancient 
 University possesses. 
 
 I beg leave to offer my respectful and grateful 
 thanks to the Rev. John Lodge, the learned Libra- 
 rian of the University, who has always most kindly 
 and most liberally aided my researches among the 
 MSS. in the Public Library.

 Dr. Nasmith, in his manuscript catalogue, has been at the pains of 
 making an analytical list of the contents of this volume, giving a 
 description of Jive Imndred and sixty-eight articles. It is almost 
 unnecessary to observe that such minuteness of detail, which has 
 been given by Dr. Nasmith in his accounts of this and other cartu- 
 laries in this Library, is wholly uncalled for ; and it would be ridi- 
 culous to pursue his plan in any catalogue destined to be comprised 
 within reasonable litnils. The unequal manner in which Dr. 
 Nasmith's work has been prepared, renders this note somewhat 
 necessary.

 then current in England, with figures of them very 
 neatly drawn and coloured, written partly in French and 
 partly in English, by Nicholas Tyery, and by him pre- 
 sented to the king, who is probably Henry VIII. The 
 author petitions for licence to coin in Ireland, and the 
 other isles out of England, the gold and silver pieces 
 which he has portrayed in his book, for which he offers 
 an annual tribute of 8,000 francs ; and prays that a stop 
 may be put to a currency of all foreign coin, and sets 
 before the king the advantage he would gain by lower- 
 ing the standard.

PART II. 
 
 SELECTIONS. 
 
 TRINITY COLLEGE. 
 
 A catalogue of the manuscripts in this library was made in 
 the year 1697, by Laughton, and printed in Bernard's Biblio- 
 theca, p. 93. Gale's collection was subsequently added, but is 
 also found in Bernard's general catalogue. Several original 
 MSS. of the celebrated poet Milton are preserved in this library, 
 which, together with some copybooks of Prince Henry, son of 
 James I., are lions shewn to visitors. This library is particularly 
 rich in early English literature, and the copies of Chaucer 
 Lydgate, Gower, &c, are extremely valuable, A large collec- 
 tion of Newton's letters to Cotes, principally relating to the 
 publication of the second edition of the Principia, is also pre- 
 served in this collection. 
 
172 
 
 ST. JOHN'S COLLEGE. 
 
 No catalogue of the MSS. in this college has ever been prin- 
 ted, although numerous and valuable. They require to be 
 arranged by some competent person. A MS. catalogue, of 
 little value, is in the case, and mentions a copy of Bernelius de 
 ahaco, in two folio volumes, which however I was unable to 
 discover in a brief search for it about three years since. It is, 
 however, almost unnecessary to observe that every facility is 
 afforded, even under these disadvantages, to persons engaged in 
 archaeological researches. 
 
 CAIUS COLLEGE. 
 
 There are many valuable and curious MSS. in the library of 
 this college, a catalogue of which is given by Bernard. One 
 very curious collection of early English metrical romances, 
 contains an unique copy of the romance of King Athelstan. I 
 believe that a catalogue of these MSS. is in preparation by the 
 Rev. J. J. Smith, the learned tutor of this college. 
 
 CORPUS CHRISTI COLLEGE. 
 
 A good catalogue of the extremely valuable collection in the 
 library of this college was published by Dr. Nasmith. In point 
 of value and rarity, the collection may almost be compared to 
 the Cottonian. Much misapprehension prevails relative to the 
 original regulations concerning this library, the very strict rules 
 now preserved not being by any means coeval with the testament 
 of the founder. Any alteration must, however, be made with 
 great caution. 
 
173 
 EMMANUEL COLLEGE. 
 
 A catalogue of the MSS. in this college is given by Bernard. 
 Here is preserved a copy of WicklifFe's translation of the bible. 
 
 SIDNEY SUSSEX COLLEGE. 
 
 A catalogue of the MSS. in this college is also given by 
 Bernard. 
 
 JESUS COLLEGE. 
 
 The excellent library belonging to this college has never had 
 justice done to it. There are several curious MSS., some of 
 ■which formerly belonged to the monastery of St. Cuthbert, at 
 Durham. A very curious catalogue of the books in the monas- 
 tery of Rievaulx, made in the fourteenth century, is also 
 preserved in this library. I may likewise mention a collection 
 of the minor poems of John Lydgate, and a Latin Chronicle 
 of English events from the year 1042 to the battle of Lewes in 
 1264. A transcript of this chronicle is preserved in Tanner's 
 collection in the Bodleian, No. 383. 
 
 ST. PETER'S COLLEGE. 
 
 A continuation of the Brute chronicle by Warkworth, master 
 of this college, in the fifteenth century, was printed by the 
 Camden Society, from a MS. in the college library. Bernard 
 has given us a catalogue of the MSS. belonging to this college. 
 
174 
 
 PEMBROKE HALL. 
 
 Dr. James made a catalogue of the MSS. in the library 
 in this hall in 1600, which has been reprinted by Bernard. 
 Mr. Hartshorne has given copious extracts from a MS. History 
 of the college by Wren, formerly master. 
 
 KINGS' COLLEGE. 
 
 In this library is preserved a fine Latin psalter, written upon 
 vellum, about four spans long by three broad, accompanied 
 with musical chaunts, which was taken from the library of 
 Osorius, bishop of Cadiz, at the taking of that city in 1596 by 
 the Earl of Essex. Hentzer, in the account of his travels in 
 England in 1598, particularly describes this MS. as then being 
 in the library of this college. An unique copy of the curious 
 romance of William and the Werwolf, edited by Sir F. Madden 
 for the Roxburghe club, is preserved in this college. 
 
 TRINITY HALL. 
 
 There are very few MSS. in the library of this college. 
 The most important are described by Mr. Hunter, in his report 
 on the Cambridge libraries. A copy of the EpistolcB Thoma 
 a Bechet, and an early French translation of Boetius de Conso- 
 latwne Philosophies, may also be mentioned. 
 
 THE PEPYSIAN. 
 
 This library belongs to Magdalen college, and a catalogue of 
 the few MSS. which it contains was published by Bernard, 
 
175 
 
 Among them is a curious musical manuscript of the time of 
 Henry VII. 
 
 FITZWILLIAM MUSEUM. 
 
 Queen Elizabeth's Virginal Book is preserved in this Mu- 
 seum, together with other valuable musical manuscripts. The 
 Rev. Samuel Tillbrook of St. Peter's college, presented three 
 autograph letters of Oliver Cromwell, which have been recently 
 published in the Cambridge Portfolio by the Rev. J. J. Smith. 
 
 DOWNING COLLEGE. 
 
 In this college are preserved some manuscripts relating to 
 Cambridge, bequeathed by Mr. Bowtell, among which is a 
 history of Cambridge by himself.
