    MSS. FORMERLY BELONGING TO THE LIBRARY OF WORCESTER CATHEDRAL, NOW IN OTHER LIBRARIES. 4- I. Now at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge :— For these see Dr. M. R. James, Sources of Archbishop Parker's Collection of MSS. at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, Sfc. Cambridge Antiquarian Society, Octavo xxxii, 1899. No. 9. Passionale. In the Kalendar is entered ‘Aelfeagi Epi,’ and on May 21, ‘obiit Eoueruuacer mo(nachus) et clericus.’ Also December 30, £ Ecguini Ep.’ Added in a later hand on the last leaf is, 4 In translation Oswaldi Archiepiscopi Lectio I.’ xi cent. No. 12. Pastorale Gregorii Saxonice. On the last cover, 4 Werferthus Ep’us Wigorn’ viijclxxii qui erat unus magistrorum Alfredi regis et iussu illius libros dialogorum beati papae Gregorii in Anglicam linguam transulit. Ex annalibus ecclesie Wigorn’ et affirmatur a Rogero Hovenden et aliis.5 Doubtfully assigned to Worcester by Dr. James, but it seems likely that Hatton MS, 20 (Bib. Bodl. Oxon) is the original Worcester copy of the same work. See note on next page. x cent. No. 24. Bradwardine de causa Dei [cf. F. 112]. Inscription: ‘ procuratus sum ad ecclesiam Wigorn’ per fratrem Ioannem de Prestone de Somersete 1 Monachum eiusdem ecclesie anno dom. millesimo cccmo xlviii.’ xivcent. No. 48. Biblia Vulgata. This is apparently the autograph copy of Senatus, Prior 1189—1196. Before the Gospels is 4 Incipit .... magistri Senati Wigorniensis biblio- thecarii de concordia et dispositione canonum evangeliorum.’ 4 Dilecto amico suo et socio Magistro Alueredo suus Senatus Wigornie ecclesie filius salutem.’ 1 See also F. 11, a book given by the same donor. »
