Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Manuscripts in the Library at Lambeth Palace We find that in Bernard's Catalogi Manuscriptorum Angliae (1697), ii. pp. 198-203, is a list of 312 MSS. belonging to Charles Theyer, of Gloucestershire: and a comparison of this list with Casley's Catalogue of the Royal MSS. shews that with very few exceptions the books enumerated now form part of the Royal Library. In other words, the collection of Charles Theyer, described by Bernard, is that which Charles II. bought. It is clear that when Bernard's Catalogue was issued the Theyer MSS. must have been for some years at St James's: but I do not find any note of the fact either in Preface or Appendix. It will be further noticed that the number of books (312) differs widely from that specified by Wood (about 800). An explanation of this fact is not immediately forthcoming. We should expect at this stage of our investigation to find that the Theyer MSS. in the Royal Library were traceable in large part to Lanthony Priory. That, however, is not the case. Of a large number which I have myself examined, not more than two or three are Lanthony books. Worcester and Gloucester have contributed largely to the collection: and this is not surprising when we know that the ancestral abode of the Theyers was in the immediate neighbourhood of Gloucester. But as to Lanthony - clearly there is something more than meets the eye in the history as given by Wood. We can hardly doubt that he is correct in his account of the connexion between the old Theyer and Prior Hart, and the presence of many books from Lanthony on Theyer's shelves. We also see that these books must have been diverted to some other quarter before the purchase of the collection by Charles II. Can we at this time of day ascertain either when the diversion took place, or where the Lanthony books are now? I believe we can. It would clearly be a very great help if we could arm ourselves with a document showing what books were in the Library whose relics we are pursuing. Such a document is very fortunately accessible.

Handlist to manuscripts in one of Britain's major medieval repositories. Lambeth Palace Library, which dates from a bequest by Archbishop Bancroft in 1610, is one of England's major repositories of medieval manuscripts. More than half of the ninety-six manuscripts and documents containing items of Middle English prose were already present when the library was temporarily transferred to Cambridge in 1647. In the succeeding centuries further manuscript materials have continually been added, and within the last few years the library has become home to the older part of Sion College Library, an event that has added a further seven manuscripts to the present handlist. The collection at Lambeth is large enough to be fully representative of the corpus of Middle English prose: the Brut, the Wycliffite Bible, and Love's Mirror, for example, are all present, in some cases in multiple copies, as are writings by Hilton and Rolle. There are sermon cycles (including an almost complete set of Wycliffite sermons), medical recipes, historical works, and anthologies of religious treatises. Altogether the current handlist indexes almost 800 separate items, ranging from the veterinary to the liturgical. O.S. PICKERINGis Senior Assistant Librarian and Associate Lecturer in English at the University of Leeds; V.M. O'MARAis Lecturer in English at the University of Hull.
