from Part I - The Collections
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 September 2009
This composite volume is made up of five different booklets, all of which contain sermons. They are as follows:
Quire A. Three folios extant. In two columns, written in an Anglicana bookhand of the first half of the fourteenth century. Two Marian sermons, J/1-1 and 2, the second ending incomplete.
Quires B–F. Fifty-six folios extant. In two columns, written in an Anglicana hand much like (1) but more compressed laterally and with thinner strokes, becoming smaller later on. About 128 sermons de sanctis and de tempore in regular liturgical order, with medieval numbers 62–126 and 1–53. I have inventoried them as J/2. The last saints sermon ends incomplete. All have the same format. Many de sanctis sermons correspond to the Sermones de sanctis of Bertrand de la Tour, OFM (died 1332). Many de tempore sermons correspond to items in the Franciscan collection of Monte Cassino MS213. The two series are continuous, the second beginning on the verso of the same folio. They are followed by an alphabetical subject index for the de sanctis sermons, giving the sermon number and section (a–h). After the index, on the remaining verso and ultimate folio, a sermon has been added in one column and in a cursive fifteenth-century Anglicana hand; this is a visitation sermon on Fratres tuos visitabis, which also occurs elsewhere.
