The Middle English Evangelie: Additions and Corrections

Abstract

P. 530. Description of the MS. The stain in the MS. at ff. 81-84 extends through a number of preceding folios, and therefore occurred since the fragment of the quire was bound up in the present volume. The Latin fragments on the first three pages of the quire are theological commonplaces, and the conclusion of a tract which I have not been able to identify; probably a summary of one of Augustine's sermons, copied in the same illiterate Latin as that of the rubrics. P. 536. Add to note 20: Cf. also, on guttural h before t, Richard de Caistre, and Miss Peebles's note in Harford's edition; Norwich Guild-reports, EETS. XL, pp. 38, 43, 62, etc.; Capgreaves's Life of St. Kattherine, EETS., ed. Furnivall, Introd., p. 25. P. 540, note 27, goed. I have since found the spelling goed, used apparently without regard to the length of the vowel, in a number of MSS., and am inclined to think it merely a scribal variation. The note should be cancelled. P. 544, diagram. The left-hand dotted line z-z'-B should be cancelled. TEXT
