About A. p,. 1300. * Egidio Colonna, better known as JAdgidius Romanus, was a Pupil of Thomas Aqui- nas, and was surnamed the profound Scholar. He died at Avignon in 1316, having been Arch- bishop of Bourges since 1292. This work was written before 1268, as shown by its dedication to Philippe. le Bel while he was yet only heir to the crown. The date of Ganchi’s translation is not ascertained, but the present MS. proves that it was anterior to 1300, probably almost contemporary with the Latin original. The above MS. was probably written in England, to judge from the handwriting and_ the style of ornament; and_ the linguistic forms, although more approximating to French than to English style, are not adverse to that view. Tere is a specimen—‘‘Quer cil q est fouslarges en sa ie’nesce puet estre avaricious en sa viellesce.”” The book was in Eng- lish possession in Henry VII.’s time, as several minute glosses in English (and also in Latin) are visible on the margins in an English hand of that period. Amongst these we find boorder- esses=tangelars [i.e. idle gossippers], enclume=anefeld [anvil], euures=dedis or actis, aenutz= pig-earde, forslignent=doth ayenst kind, ramenez=broght ayen; etc. Consequently if the asser- tion is correct, which we find in a cutting from the Paris sale-catalogue of 1790, that this MS. belonged to Claude Durfé, he must have acquired it in England at the time of his mission here. The velvet binding in which the book is clothed at present was put upon it for Henri de Cler- mont Tonnere about 1580, as we can see from the impression left on the velvet by the (now removed) metal plaque which formed the center ornament. The metal pieces of the corners still remain.—A Mr. Concannon bought the MS. at a Paris auction in 1790; at the sale of his books at Christie’s in 1800, it was purchased by Mr. Wodhull. 3.

Two vellum leaves are inserted in the volume, and contain very interesting notes relating to the Rommant in the writing of a former owner, R. Mas- son. They bear the date of 1672, and show how highly the importance of this manuscript was appreciated two and a half centuries ago. “‘Ce manuscript,” writes Masson, “‘est fort consider- able pour son antiquité estant assurément un veritable original de plus de trois cens ans, comme le studieux et curieux de l’antiquité et proges de la langue Francaise poura reconnoistre tout par lortographie, le character des lettres, et durete du styl, et par la barbarie du langage.” 8.

Lr Grant Roman pe Tristan, French MS. on VELLUM, with illuminated initials and capitals, and containing nearly 80 SINGULARLY BEAUTIFUL MINIATURES, illustrating the story with scenes of love, war, and pageantry, many of them forming exquisite pictures in design, execution, and colouring, formerly in the possession of CATHERINE de Bourson, Duchesse d’Albret, sister of Henrt IV., with her cypher on the old calf sides. Folio. 1468. This valuable MS. exhibits the story of Tristan in its most ample form, infinitely more extensive than the printed text. One of its more remarkable features is the number of poetic lays ascribed to Tristan and sung either by him or by others to the accompaniment of the harp. Another striking peculiarity is the great prominence assigned to the Saracen knight Palamedes who occupies a large share of the story, and whose noble. simple, and generous character is brought into contrast with the jealous and everbearing Tristan, his rival throughout the narrative. The volume is not perfect. 1t begins with folio xxvii of the ancient numeration, at the time when King Marc comes to Logres to seek to injure T'ristan, and incorporates a large portion of the Grail Quest towards the end, breaking off after Lancelot’s final attempt to see the Grail in the Castle of Corbenic. A page or two before, Tristan had been wounded by King Mark in a treacherous attack from behind. The text in this MS. is very good, and represents probably the most complete form of the Tristan as compiled about the middle of the thirteenth century. It consists of over 600 pages, in double columns of 53 lines each; while the corresponding text of the printed book comprises only 200 pages in double columns of 40 lines each. The original poem of Tristan was, as the prose romance alleges, composed by Messire Luces de Gast (about 1160?) and according to Helie de Borron it was the first portion of the Arthurian romances rendered into French. It must have been the simple tale of love produced by a philtre with a tragical ending; but Helie de Borron when converting it into prose about 1210-20 worked it up with the Round Table, Grail, and Arthurian narrative. Thus Tristan is associated to the Quest of the Grail, encounters Galaad, Perceval, and the rest of them, and is allowed by Lancelot to live with Yseult in the castle of Joyeuse Garde for several years. In the Lance- lot, Tristan and Yseult are quite swnmentioned; from: which it is clear that the Lancelot was finished before Helie took up the Tristan. The names of Tristan and Yseult (Trystan, Essyllt) are purely Cambrian; but the story may have originated in Cornwall. elie de Borron was a man of decidedly high literary qualities. The difficulty raised with regard to his age and the circumstance that according to his own stacement he :vas a kinsman and companion-in-arms of Robert de Borron, is easily solved. If Robert was born about 1145, and Helie about 1160, they might well have been companions in arms; while the former could have written his Grail in 1175 and the latter his Tristan and Guyron about 1220. From the Libraries of Peter Le Neve, Norroy King at Arms; Bishop Warburton, the Editor of Shakespeare, and Gregory Lewis Way.

Imprynted at London in Fletestre by Rycharde Pynson, 1525. * As Jehan Froissart was born in Valenciennes and used the language of the French Court, his marvellous chronicle, the finest picture which .has ever been painted of the days of chivalry, is one of the chief glories of French literature. He was, however, a Walloon, a member of that highly interesting border people who occupy French Flanders, Hainaut, part of Brabant, and all the frontier as far as Luxembourg between two great states. Their speech is ridiculed as a bar- barous patois by both French and German neighbours, but it is the oldest living example of the Romanic tongue out of which grew modern French, and the people are the descendants (largely mixed of course) of the Belgian Gauls by whom Southern Britain was peopled, and who stiil remain to mark the limit of the flood-tide of Germanic invasion westward. Froissart lived at the time when chivalry had reached its highest magnificence; Bertrand du Guesclin, Edward III., the Black Prince, Gaston de Foix, and Sir John Chandos, were to him familiar figures of his daily life, and he seems not to have survived the century to which belong the most typical and splendid developments of Knighthood.

Illustrated with several very large and fine woodcuts. Folio, French mottled calf gilt. Im- primé a Paris pour Anthoine Verard, (1504). * This was the first issue by Verard, as appears from the absence of a title, and the absence of a leaf of prologue. Here the preliminary leaves are seven in number (the first, a blank, hav- ing been torn away); of which, six leaves (a ii—[a vii] contain the table, and the seventh has a large woodcut on the obverse, the reverse blank.—(In the second issue, these preliminary leaves were reprinted in smaller characters. The large woodcut was placed on the reverse of folio 1, and the words of intitulation printed on the obverse; the table occupied leaves 2-7; and on the eighth leaf a prologue was added.) In the colophon Verard describes his house as “devant la rue neuve Notre Dame,” and as he only began to do so in September, 1503, the Gyron cannot be anterior, although Brunet says “vers 1501. Didot’s copy, with the title and another leaf in facsimile, fetched 1300 fr. plus auctioneer’s commission. The Yemeniz copy, a fine one, sold for about £240. A dirty and wormed copy fetched 1500 fr. at Paris in 1876. Guiron was the last of the. original Arthurian romances, and appeared about 1220. Helie de Borron was its author, and a great deal of his own invention will probably be found in it. He was evidently influenced by a reaction against the free and easy life of the former knights when he undertook to write the story of a Pure Knight. Guirin or Gwirin means pure in Cymric, and the hero who bears the name in this interesting story proves himseif worthy of the name. 21.

Okes, 1641. > * First Edition. The Merlin is the oldest element of the Arthurian stories. The name of Ambrosius or Emrys, which he is stated to have borne, and the confusion between two traditionary Merlins, Merlinus Ambrosius and Merlinus Caledonicus, show that the real personage underlying the myths belonged to the Fifth Century, and to the North West region in which Ambrosius Aure- lius united the Britanni (Roman Britons) and the Cumbrians against the Saxons and Picts. The very name Merlinus is seen to be extraneous to the Cymry of Wales, since they use it in the form Myrddin, which (had it been the true original) would have been Latinised by Geoffrey as Merdinus, or Maridinus, just as the genuine Cymric Caermarthen was Latinised Maridunum, 25.

Edition of 61 Copies. ; Sir Frederick Madden thought that the Lai de Aveloc (or Lai de Cuaran) represented a poem-anterior to the text of Gaimar’s Haveloc in the Estoire des Engles, but the Thirteenth Century trouvere simply developed Gaimar’s story with additions. The actual hero whose exploits made him the central figure is identified with Anlaf Cuaran, the Danish King of Dublin, who died in 981, but the names and careers of other warriors of the same name (Anlaf, Olaf, Have- lok, Hamlet) are evidently blended in the romance, with draughts from old tradition of many sources.—The English poem is also ascribed to the latter part of the Thirteenth Century. 203.
