An old title (xvii) on f. 1.
Thomae Rudburni Chronicon : aut saltern monachi alicuius
Ecclesiae Wintoniensis. Deest Initium et plurimum in fine
libri.
Quaere quo tempore vixit Rob. Neuile Ep. Dunelmensis qui
mutuo dedit autori Librum priuilegiorum eccl. Dunelm. ut
habetur infra in Chron. fol. 114. Quo cognito poteris ex
Balaeo coniecturam facere de nomine Autoris.
Sancroft writes below: He was Bp of Duresm from A. 1438 to
1457. And ye Junior Rudburn liv’d about yr time.
ff. 1-11 are a supply of cent, xvi, probably a fair copy of the
original first quire which was torn and imperfect. They
begin:
(Civitas Wen-)tana que lingua Britannica Kaergwent (blank) a
flamen dicitur et filum (Wharton, A.S. I. 181).
Lib. 11. begins 3 b, Lib. in. 9 a.
With quire 2, f. 11 the old writing begins. It is of cent, xv
late. Here also begins a xvith cent, foliation on the lower
corner, 13 etc.
At the top is (xv) : Mem. quod iste est 2US quaternus in ordine.
The text begins : Iste Athulphus siue Ethelwlphus (Wharton,
p. 201).
There are marginalia by Wharton largely bearing on the
Historia Minor and incorporated by him in his footnotes to
Anglia Sacra.
There are also head-lines and side-notes in a hand of cent, xv
late.
Wharton omits many passages (fi.g. on the monastic life in
ill. 12, ff. 24-26#, another in 29 a (ill. 12 end) on Edward
the Martyr, etc. etc.) on the ground that they are taken
verbatim from well-known sources.
Lib. iv. begins 40 b. There is a change of hand at 73 b for a
few pages only.
Lib. v. f. 53. The first chapter extends to f. 120. The parts
printed by Wharton occupy his pp. 249-263. Cap. 2 ends
174 Wharton, pp. 263-272. Cap. 3 ends 202 b, Wharton,
pp. 273-283. Of Cap. 4 Wharton prints selections, ending:
Haec Wilhelmus Mimacensis Ep. in Rational! Divinorum
(p. 285). This corresponds to f. 206 b of the MS. which
continues with extracts from William of Newburgh etc. and
ends in one from Will. Malmesbury, Hist. Novella (Lib. in.
499, Rolls ed., p. 580): qui mallent equitacionum discursus
quam pacem. Preterea plures (illorum)
The C.C.C.C. MS. 350 is a transcript of this, beginning and
ending at the same point. The present MS. is the only one
of medieval date.
