PREFACE,
In a Publication of this nature, consisting of Records derived from various sources, and of different dates, in illustration of the same subject, it may be expedient, in the commencement of our Prefatorial Remarks, to enter into a brief detail of the nature of the Records themselves, and of their relative bearing upon the object of this volume, the illustration of the Library of the Cathedral Church of Durham from the Conquest to the Dissolution. These preliminary statements and obser- vations will tend to remove such difficulties as may pre- sent themselves in the course of our volume, and save much time to our readers.

This is the first perfect Catalogue of the Library of the Prior and Convent of Durham upon record. It is preserved in the miscellaneous MS. B. IV. 24, of the Dean and Chapter, their successors ; and we reprint it from the Catalogue of their MSS., published by the Dean and Chapter, in 1825. In the following pages this printed Catalogue will be perpetually referred to, under the name of Rud's Catalogue, and a few words may be here said of it, once for all. The Rev. Thomas
11 PREFACE.
Rud (for so he spells bis name in his laborious work, altboLigh both before and after its compilation be added another d to his name,) was born at Stockton in ICG7, graduated M.A. in Trinity College, Cambridge, in 1691, and in 1697 was appointed Head Master of the Grammar School of Durham. In 1699, he was elected to the Mastership of the School of Newcastle, but the Dean and Chapter of Durham, duly appreciating his learning, eleven years afterwards prevailed upon him to re-assume the management of their School, conferring upon him, at the same time, other offices, one of which was the Librarianship of their Cathedral. In 1711? Mr. Rud was presented by his patrons, the Dean and Chapter of Durham, to the Vicarage of St. Oswald's, and in 1725 to the Vicarage of North Allertcn. In 1728, he became a Prebendary of Ripon, and in 1729, the Bishop of Durham collated him to the Rectory of Washington, where he died in 1732, at the age of 65.* It was towards the close of Mr. Rud's second residence in Durham that his elaborate Catalogue of the MSS. of the Dean and Chapter, his patrons, was com- menced ; and it was not finished till the 15th of September, 1727? two years after he had retired from Durham to Northallerton. His successor in the office of Librarian was the Rev. Robert Pigot, and several of his letters to Mr. Pigot are preserved in the Library, manifesting his great anxiety for accuracy in the impor-

tant work in which he was engaged, by his frequent re- quests that Mr. Pig(jt would look again and again at certain MSS., and verify the notes which he had made during his residence in Durham for that purpose. A hand more distinct and beautiful, and, it may be added, peculiar, than that of Mr. Rud, can scarcely be conceiv- ed ; and the result of his laborious investigations in the manuscript closet of the Dean and Chapter, was a noble folio, the whole of it in that hand, dated by him at Al- lerton, 15th of September, 1727, and eventually printed by the Dean and Chapter of Durham in 1325. But in the interval between I727 and 1S25, many MSS. of considerable local and general importance had been pur- chased by the Dean and Chapter of Durham, especially the topographical collections of Hunter, Randall, and Allan ; and as it was thought that Rud's Catalogue should be accompanied with an account of these later ac(|uisition3, a full account of them, constituting one- third of the published volume, was drawn up by Mr. Raine, the present Librarian, who, while the book was in the press, made numerous additions to Rud's notices, one of which was the Catalogue, No. I., in the book now presented to the public, printed at length from the M S. in which Rud had contented himself with stating that it was contained.
The early date of this catalogue, — for Rud reasons well that its compilation must have preceded the dona- tion by Bishop Pudsey of his splendid Bible, — and its interesting nature, both suggest the expediency of its being reprinted in this volume.
This Catalogue was probably made during the earlier a 2

part of the twelfth century, and is thus described by the accurate pen of Mr. Rud, in the Catalogue already cited : —
" Catalogus Librorum ; quorum plerique Latini sunt : pauci Anglici (i. e. Saxonici). Videntur ad hoc (Dunelmense) Coenobium pertinuisse : licet nullus ti- tulus praefigatur, nisi a manu recenti. (Elia? Smith). Nonnulli enim libri in eo sunt qui hodie etiam super- sunt. Non video autem Biblia Hugonis Episcopi, 4 voluminibus in folio, (A. II. 1.) qua3 hoc Catalogo ro- centiora (quod etiam ex literarum forma conjicere licet) fortasse fuerunt. In fine subjiciuntur (ab alia manu) Libri aliquot Thomse Prioris. Electus is fuit A. D. 11()2. Sunt tantum tres paginae." .
The recent title Mr. Rud mentions is in the hand- Writing of Elias Smith, Librarian of Durham, who died in 1676, and it is that which we have adopted.
We now come to the two perfect Catalogues of the Library of the Church of Durham, taken in 1391 and 1416, with divers intermediate lists and notices, all con- tained in a M S. expressly devoted to the purpose, and classed B. IV. 26, in the Library of the Dean and Chapter of Durham.*
♦ Though the Manuscripts still preserved in the Library of the Dean and Chapter have been described with great care by Mr. Rud, that diligent Librarian had no knowledge of the existence of these Catalogues of 1391 and 141G. Where they could then have been deposited, it is not now possible to ascertain ; but Mr. Raine has ap- propriately noticed them in the Appendix to that Catalogue, having classed the book under the designation, B. IV. 26, as above. It is equally clear that Rud was utterly ignorant of the fact, that the Monks described their books by the first word on the second folio.
PTIEFACE. V
Before we proceed to specify more minutely the va- rious contents of this book, as we have arranged them in the following volume, it may be stated that the Monks of Durham did not keep their books in one room, but in various places within the precincts of their Cathedral, in the Spendimentum, or Splendement, in the Clois- ter, and the Refectory. The first of these places is proved, by p. 85, to be the same room as the Chancery, which still remains subdivided by its iron caiwdli from the Treasury, in which the Records are kept, and in which there was in old time " a four-square table covered
As transcripts of the same book,— as, for instance, of the Scriptures, — having the same title and initial letter, multiplied, it became neces- sary, in taking an account of their number, to distinguish one copy from another by some certain mark. From the inequality of the hand-writing in different individuals, the scribe of one copy would rarely, and, if ever, accidentally, begin his second leaf with the same «ord as his fellow-labourer; consequently, the first words of the second leaf were generally used by the Monks as the most convenient mode of distinguishing one copy of the same work from another, and of identifying the book itself. As a specimen of those mistakes into which people will sometimes unavoidably fall through ignorance, Mr. Rud's interpretation of this simple expedient for the convenience of distinction, upon which he once stumbled by accident, in a copy of *' Secunda Pars Historialis Vincentii/' " 2 fo., divina," in the Dur- ham Library, may be here given. He reasons thus : — " ' 2° fo., divi- na, si rectd lego, est duo folia divina; i. e., duo volumina in folio egregia et eximia ; ut ostendat quanto in pretio hi libri haberentur." £Catal., p. 90, under B. I. 32.] To Thomas Rud, however, we are greatly indebted for minute and accurate descriptions of such manuscripts contained in these Catalogues as, having escaped the ravages of time, and the hand of the spoiler, still remain in the Li- brary of the Church of Durham.

with green cloth for the telling of their money."* — " Within the said Treasury," (says the authority cited below) " was a strong iron grate set fast in the ground- work, in the roof, and in either wall, the breadth of the house, so fast as not to be broken ; and in the midst of the grate a door of iron with a strong lock upon it, and two great shuts of iron for the said door.'*
This iron lattice still remains in all its firmness, af- fording the most complete security to the inner room ; and existing records prove that through its interstices money was received and paid, and especially that here the servants of the Convent received their wages. This fact seems at once to account for the word Spendimen- tum, and to justify Rud's conjecture.t In this Spendi- ment there were apparently two classes of books, the one accessible to the Monks at large, kept in a com- mon bookcase,! and the other preserved in the inner room.§
The next considerable portion of the books of the Monks of Durham was preserved in the north aisle of the Cloister; and of this Library we have the folio win o- mmute description : —

*< In the north side of the Cloisters, from the corner over against the church door to the corner opposite the dorter door, was, from the height of the sole, within a little of the ground, unto the Cloister-garth, all finely glazed ; and in every window, three pews or Carrels, where every one of the old Monks had his Carrel several by himself, to which, after having dined, they did resort, and there study their books, every one in his Carrel, all the afternoon, till even-song time ; and this was their exercise every day. Their Pews or Carrels were finely wainscotted, and very close, the foreside having carved work of wainscot to let in light to their Carrels j in every Carrel was a desk to lay tlieir books on ; and the Car- rels were no greater than from one stanchel to another of the window. Opposite to the Carrels, against the church wall, stood certain great Ambries of wainscot, full of Books, as well the antient written Doctors of the Church, as other prophane authors, with divers other lioly men's works ; so that every one studied what doctor he pleased, having the Library at all times open to go and study in, besides their Carrels.'**
Other books were placed within the doorway leading to the Infirmary, (near the corner in the south end of the west alley of the Cloister). These were the books used by the Reader in the Refectory during the time of dinner, and they were deposited here as in the near- est place of safety. Why they were not placed in the Refectory itself, it would now be in vain to inquire.
One case or chest of books was appropriated to the

Novices, whose place of study is known to have been in that part of the Cloister which fronts the door of the Treasury.*
The Registry is also mentioned at later periods as a place in which books were deposited, but this was only another and a later name for the Spendimentum, or Chancery, above-mentioned. This fact is proved by a memorandum in the MS. of Symeon, preserved in the Library of Bishop Cosin, and printed in the Appen- dix in the Catalogue of the MSS. preserved in that Li- brary.
• The system of education pursued within the Monastery of Dur- ham, before the Reformation, appears to have been this : — " There were always six Novices, who went daily to school, within the house, for the space of seven years together ; and one of the eldest Monks, that was learned, was appointed to be their tutor. The said Novices had no wages, but meat, drink, and cloathing: for that space. The Master, or Tutor's office was to see that they lacked nothing, as cowls, frocks, stamyne, bedding, boots, socks ; and when they did want any of these necessaries, the Master had charge to call upon one of the Chamberlains for such things ; for they never received wages, nor handled any money in that space, but went daily to their books in the Cloister. And if the Master found any of them apt to learn, aad that he applied himself to his book, and had a pregnant wit, he gave notice thereof to the Prior, and some time after he was sent to Oxford to school, and there he did learn and study divinity ; and the residue of the Novices were kept at their books till they could understand their service, and the Scriptures ; then, at the seven years' end, they did sing their first mass. The house was no longer charged with finding them apparel, for they entered into wages to find themselves apparel : which wages was twenty shillings in the year. He had no more to find himself apparel withal ; the eldest Monk in the house had no more, except he had an office."*

PREFACE. IX
According to a notice in the beginning of the MS., B. IV. 26, a book of which Rud has given a very de- tailed description, there was also a Library in the Cha- pel of the Prior ; but of this we have no account. There certainly were no books save service books in the Prior's Chapel in 1446.* The memorandum above alluded to, which Rud has, contrary to his custom, not noticed, is as follows : — " Iste Liber assignatur Librarise infra Capel- 1am Prioris per Johannem Wessington Priorem."
The Library which is so frequently mentioned in these Catalogues, was an erection of a date posterior to the last of them, that of 1416, and was built by Prior Wessington, who was in office from the year last men- tioned till 1446. It is now occupied by the Registrar of the Dean and Chapter, and his Clerks. Into this room, after it was finished, the books appear to have been gra- dually removed from the Spendiment and Cloister ; the words " In Libraria," or " Ponitur in Libraria,'* being placed in the margin of the Catalogue opposite to the book upon its removal. This was the " Library in the south angle of the Lanthorne which is now above the clock standing betwixt the Chapter House and the Te Deum window, well replenished with old written Doc- tors and other Histories, and Ecclesiastical Writers,*' spoken of by the anonymous compiler whose most va- luable Durham Church Notes were first printed by Da- vies, and afterwards by Hunter and Sanderson, and from which we quote so largely.t This was the last Repo-

Cloister during tlic Librarianship of William de Appel- by in 1305,
The Catalogue of 1395, includes the " LibrariaClaus- trahs Dunelmi," consisting of the books found in " Coni- muni Armariolo Dunelmensi in diversis locis infra Claustrum," at that time. It commences with the De- cretals and Commentators thereon, followed by the Ca- tholicon and the Grammatical Works. Next come the Bibles, with and without Glosses ; Postils and various portions of Holy Writ, with the Commentaries of De Lyra and other writers ; Concordances, Scholastic His- tory, and the Sentences. Then follow Legends of the Saints, and Civil and Ecclesiastical Histories ; the Works of Saints Ambrose, Jerome, and Austin, the Ve- nerable Bede, and other Fathers, Doctors, and School- men ; Discourses and Homilies ; Rituals, and other works ; Treatises on Physics and Medicine ; and Psal- ters without Glosses, and a few miscellaneous volumes. This collection, both in its arrangement and its contents, differs from that of 1391.

The body of this Catalogue is in an earlier hand than that of 1391, but this circumstance is accounted for in the note p. 85. It contains a few omissions, some cle- rical errors, and the addition of a few volumes. It

contains, also, some curious remarks upon tlie condition of the Books, for to this the words " modicum valet," and •• nullius valoris," seem to refer, rather than to any cri- tical opinion of their intrinsic value in a literary point of view. These notes, if considered in this second liirht. though attached only to a few of the volumes, would af- ford a rare instance of contemporary criticism in the Middle Ages. The titles, however, of some books are corrected, or more fully given, as, for instance, the " Bib- lia Versificata," B. IV. 28, " vocatur Libri Petri *in Au- rora ;' " and the " Statuta Anglicana," are entered under the proper title of " Brito super Leges et Con- Buetudines Angliae.'*
The most remarkable differences between these two Catalogues are the substitution of " Auctoritates Bib- liaB per modum Concordantias, cum Tabula," for the •* Flores Bernardi, cum quadam alia Tabula," in the title of the same volume ; and the catchword of the " Martilogium," &c., B. IV. 24, which in the Cata- logue of 1391 is " Psalterium Petri," is in that of 141G " Compleverunt," being clearly the same book. The books added to this Collection since the compilation of the preceding Catalogue of 1391, are— Biblia quondam Roberti Bolton Monachi — Exposicio super Johelem et Naum in uno quaterno — two copies of the Flores Ber- nardi— Libellus Beati Effrem Diaconi cum aliis multis
Auctoritates sacrae Scripturse, et Communeloquium J. VValensis— Vita SanctsBEbbae,pro Refectorio— Henricus de Huntyngdon-— Comentum Metaphicicae— Libellus Jo- hannicii ad Tegni Galieni— Dietae universales et parti- culares Ysaac, (C. IV. 13,)— Doctor super Decreta

(C. III. 8,)— Petrus de Salinis super Decreta (C. II. 6,) — and Psalterium, cum Canticis et Ympnario, which, we are told, was given "per Johannem Oil pro Psalterio furato per scriptorem." The omissions, in the Catalogue of 1416, of books mentioned in that of 1391, refer only to an irregular entry of " Parvum Volumen quarto ;'* and " Codex quarto cum Regulis Juris ;*' to the let- ters indicating the place of each volume in the Li- brary, whenever those initials are followed by a blank space ; and to the Memorandum relative to Robert Assheburne. Many clerical errors in the Catalogue of 1391 are corrected in that of 1416, and many are also committed which are not seen in the other, as for in- stance, the " Libri Postralium B. Gregorii," are pro- perly called " Pastoralium," but in the same line " Ro- tarius" is substituted for the true name in the original «« Lotarius."
XI. P. 116. A brief List of Books belonging to Henry Helaugh, and sent to the Cell of Stamford, an Ecclesiastical Establishment under the Church of Dur- ham, in the year 1422.
This is the last notice contained in the Volume. The book itself, of which a brief account was given by Mr. Raine in his Appendix to Mr. Rud*s Catalogue, p. 431 — 5, is a thin folio, upon parchment, and in a some- what modern binding. The Catalogue of 1391 occupies 17 leaves; that of 1395, 16; and that of 1416, IL The whole of these interesting documents are, by the permission of the Dean and Chapter of Durham, here printed for the first time ; and it will be shewn in the se- quel that a very considerable number of these venerable

books are still preserved in the Library of that Reverend Body. The method adopted for identifying them will be specified in connection with the tabular view of their present class marks.
We proceed to make a few brief remarks respecting the various documents in the Appendix.
I. P. 117. An account of the Books conferred upon the Monks of Durham by Bishop William de Carilepho by gift during his lifetime, or by his will.*
• William Carilepho, or Carilef, that magnificent prelate, not be- ing content with the smallness and homeliness of the edifice which Aldwinus erected, as being too little for so great a saint, did pull it down seventy-six years after Aldwinus hud finished it, and instead thereof did erect the magnificent and famous structure still remaining j himself, Turgot the Prior, and Malcolm King of Scotland, laying the first three stones in the foundation upon the 30th of July, or August 11th, anno 1093. This Bishop caused the Monks to labour daily in Ibc holy work, meal-times, prayer, and service only excepted ; King Malcolm being the chief benefactor in the building ; and before the |)cople constituted Prior Turgot Archdeacon and Vicar-General in his diocese ; and going to Rome two years before bis death, he ob- tained licence of Pope Gregory the VII. to remove the Monks of the Benedictine Order from Weremouth and Jarrow to the Cathedral at Durham, where he placed them in the room of the Canons, expelled for their lewd and lazy lives. And he dying 1095, the second year after laying the foundation, his successor, Ranulph Flamberd, favour- ing and vigorously promoting that excellent work, did, in the twenty- nine years he continued Bishop, build the same from the foundation almost to the covering ; but it was not fully finished till Nicholas Fernham, Bishop, and Thomas Melsonby, Prior, two worthy per- sons, arched it over, anno 1242.'

After these preliminary statements and notices it may be expedient to throw together in this part of our Pre- face a few brief remarks respecting the transcription of Books — their value at different periods — the modes adopted by their owners to secure them as their property — and other notices of a somewhat discursive nature, but not the less referring to the subject of our publication.
The Monasteries were the only respectable seminaries of learning in the darker ages, and the only secure reposi- tories for the sacred and profane treasures of antiquity. The most eminent scholars which England produced, both in philosophy and humanity, before and even below the twelfth century, were educated in our rehgious houses. The encouragement given in the English Mo- nasteries for transcribing books, caused the multipHca- tion and embellishment of many copies. In every great Abbey there was an apartment called the Scriptorium, where many writers were constantly employed in tran- scribing, not only service books for the Choir, but

books for the library.* The Monks, themselves, might not always know the value of their treasures, and might expend labour on what merited only neglect, but still they contributed to preserve many works which would other- wise have perished.
The whole process of book-making was carried on within the Cloister. The writers, illuminators, and binders, all followed their respective occupations in the Monastic habit.* When a number of copies were to be
century. Nigel, in the year 1 160, gave the Monks of Ely two churches "ad libros faciendos." This employment appears to have been dili- gently practised at Croyland, for Ingulphus relates, that when the Library of that Convent was burnt, in 1091, seven hundred volumes were consumed. Fifty-eight volumes were transcribed at Glaston- bury, during the government of one Abbot, about the year 1300 ; and in the Library of this Monastery, the richest in England, there were upwards of 400 volumes in the year 1248. The Scriptorium of St. Alban's Abbey was built by Abbot Paulin, a Norman, who ordered many volumes to be written there, from copies furnished by Lanfranc, about the year 1080. More than eighty books were transcribed for this Monastery by Abbot Wethamstede, who died about 1400.
* The Monks were antiently the binders as well as the transcribers of books. About the year 790, Charlemagne granted an unlimited right of hunting to the Abbot and Monks of Sitbin, for making their gloves and girdles of the skins of the deer they killed, and covers for their books.— Mabillon de Re Diplom., p. 611, quoted by Warton.
In the first page of a Manuscript Life of Concubranus this note occurs:— "Ex conjunctione dompni Wyllelmi Edyr monasterii B. Mariae et S. Modwenae virginisde Burton super Trent monachi, dum esset studens Oxoniae. A.D. mdxvii.'* See MSS. Cotton, Cleopatr. IL, and MSS. Coll. Oriel. N. VI. 3 et 7 Art. The word conjunctio is ligatura.

made of the same work, it was usual to employ several persons at the same time in writing it ; each person, except him who wrote the first skin, began where his fel- low-labourer was to leave off. By this division of labour, copies of works which, to a single scribe, would have been the labour of a hfe, were made and communicated to distant Monasteries, often within a short period of their first publication.
It is evident from the Catalogues before us that many of the Works in most repute, upon their first appear- ance, were speedily transcribed in the Monastery of Durham, and in other establishments where many writers were kept.*
In the year 1277, these Constitutions were given to the Benedictine Monasteries of the province of Canterbury :—"Abbates Monacbos 8U03 claustrales, loco operis manualis, secundum suam habilitatem caeteris occupationibus deputent ; in studendo, libros scribendo, cor- rigendo, illuminando, ligando." Capit. Gen. Ord. Benedict. Prov. Cant. 1277, apud MSS. Twyne 8, p. 272, Archiv. Oxon.
Henry, a Benedictine Monk, of Hyde Abbey, near Winchester, transcribed, in the year 1 1 78, Terence, Boethius, Suetonius, and Clau- dian. Of these he formed one book, illuminating the initials, and forming the brazen bosses of the covers with his own hands. Bene- dict, Abbot of Peterborough, in 1 1 77, transcribed Seneca's Tragedies and Epistles, Terence, Martial, Claudian, the Gesta Alexandri, and many scholastic and theological treatises, with his own hand.
* "The Monks were the only writers of the acts and deeds of the Bishops and Priors of the Church of Durham, and of the other chro- nicles and histories. They likewise recorded other most valuable things, as what acts, what occurrences, what miracles were performed every year, and in what month ; being always virtuously employed, and never idle ; but either in writing good and godly works, or study- ing the Holy Scriptures, to the setting forth the honour of God, and
XXVI PREFACE.
Rud says that wherever the words " Liber Sancti Cuthberti de Dunelmo,'* occur in the beginning of a Manuscript, in a hand cooeval with the scription of the Book itself, the work was written within the Monastery of Durham. If this conjecture be the truth, a perusal of the Durham Catalogue will present numerous assu- rances of the well-directed industry of the Monks of Durham.
At the foundation of Winchester College one or more transcribers were hired and employed by the founder to make books for the library. They transcribed and took their commons within the walls of the College, as appears by computations of expenses on their account, now re- maining.*

The work of transcription was necessarily slow, labo- rious, and expensive. The Antiqiiarii or Monastic scribes furnished the libraries of their Convents, while the Li- brarii or common Scriptores supplied the public demand for literature, such as it then was. The Stationarii also trafficked in books, frequently amassing wealth by lending them out to be read at exorbitant prices, not in volumes but in detached parts, according to the estima- tion in which the author was held. So scanty a supply of knowledge could satisfy the demands but of few, and the scarcity of books during the Middle Ages, is sufficiently accounted for by these circumstances. Mr. Berrington,* however, contends, that the labours of the Monks in this department could not have been so assiduous or so well directed as is pretended, otherwise, the scarcity of copies would not have been so great.

XXVni PREFACE.
The extreme difficulty of procuring books necessarily enhanced their value, and limited their circulation.
Many curious instances of the price of books in the Middle Ages are recorded by the historian of our poetry.
In the year 1174, Walter Prior of St. Swithin's at Winchester, afterwards elected Abbot of Westminster, purchased of the Monks of Dorchester, in Oxfordshire, Bede*s Homilies, and St. Austin's Psalter, for twelve measures of barley, and a pall, on which was embroidered in silver, the History of St. Birinus their Patron Saint, converting a Saxon King. Among the royal manu- scripts in the British Museum, there is Comestor's Scholastic History in French, which, as it is recorded in a blank page at the beginning, was taken from the King of France at the battle of Poictiers, and being purchased by William Montague, Earl of Salisbury, for 100 marks, was ordered to be sold by the last will of his Countess Elizabeth, for 40 livres. About the year 1400, a copy of Jean de Meun*s Roman de la Rose was sold before the palace gate at Paris, for forty crowns, or £33 6s. Cd. In the year 1430, Nicholas de Lyra, was tran- scribed in two volumes for the Grey Friars' Library, in London, at the expense of 100 marks. The whole cost of this collection amounted to £556 in 1432. To these instances may be added the valuation of Books be- queathed to Merton College, at Oxford, before the year 1300. " A Scholastical History, 20s. A Con- cordantia, 10s.

The Royal Library at Paris, founded by Charles V. in 1365, upon its importation into England, in 1425, by the Duke of Bedford, was found to contain 853 volumes, valued at 2223 livrcs.
WalUngford, Abbot of St. Albans, gave or sold from the library of that Monastery to Richard de Bury, Bishop of Durham, A. D. 1335, Terence, Virgil, Quin- tilian, and Jerome against Rufinus, together with 32 other volumes, valued at fifty pounds of silver.
That some of these books were restored upon the death of that eminent Philobiblist, is proved by the following entry in John of Salisbury's Eutheticon: — ** Hunc librum fecit dominus Symon Abbas S. Albani, quem postea ven- ditum domino Ricardo de Bury, Episcopo Dunelmensi, emit Michael Abbas S. Albani ab executoribus pra^dicti episcopi. A. D. 1345. MSS. Reg. Brit. Mus. 13, D. IV. 3.
In a volume entitled Postilla et Lectura Roberti Hol- kote, (A. III. 27,) given by William Ebchester, Prior of Durham from 1446 to 1456, is a note of his having pur- chased the book when a monk in that house, in these words — " Liber Domini Will'i Ebchestr' Mo^chi Dun- elm' ex empcione. Pretium iiij. Marc." To which is added — " Iste Liber assignatur Librariae Mo^chor' Dun- elm* per Venerabile Patrem Mag'rum Will'm Ebchester P'orem Dunelrn."

melite, bequeathed to the Library of Grey Friars, in London, as many Manuscripts of approved authors, written in capital Roman characters, as were then esti- mated at more than two thousand pieces of gold. He adds that this Library, even in his time, exceeded all others in London, for multitude of books, and antiquity of copies.*

Antonio Beccatelli is said to have purchased of Pog- gio, a beautiful manuscript of Livy, for which he gave the latter a large field, in the year 1455. It were easy to multiply examples, but let these suffice ; for modern instances are not wanting of the conversion of acres into leaves.
The Manuscript V. IL 4 in Bishop Cosin's Library [P. 145], contains a memorandum that it was purchased by Thomas Clare, and that it cost £3. " De empcione magistri Thomse Clare, cujus animse propicietur Altissi- mus. Amen. iij. hb.
In the lives of the Popes and of many Bishops, the do- nations of Books are recorded as acts of signal generosity; and as deserving of perpetual remembrance, the gift v/as sometimes inscribed even on the monuments of departed benefactors. Mr. Davenport's gift of Manuscripts to the Library of Bishop Cosin, is recorded on his grave- stone, even so late as the year I677. See p. xix above.

Donations or bequests of Books, whether to indivi- duals or to religious houses, were usually accompanied by stipulations and restrictions, indicative of the value set upon them by their possessors.
In the year 1225, Roger de Insula, Dean of York, gave several Latin Bibles to the University of Oxford, with a condition that the students who perused them should deposit a cautionary pledge. Sometimes a book was given to a Monastery, on condition that the owner should have the use of it during his life, or the benefit of the pious intercession of the fraternity after his death. Sometimes to a private person, with the reserva- tion, that he who received it should pray for the soul of his benefactor ; or if to a Convent, offered with great solemnity on the altar.
The scarcity of books during the Middle Ages, is so well authenticated a fact, that but few examples need be offered for its illustration, rather than support. Private persons seldom possessed any books whatever ; even Monasteries of considerable note had only one Mis- sal.*
In the year 855, Lupus, Abbot of Ferrieres, in France, sent two of his Monks to Pope Benedict III., to request the loan of Cicero de Oratore and Quintilian's Institutes, and some other books, **for," says the Abbot, "although we have part of these books, yet there is no whole or complete copy of them in all France." " These works," he adds, "if your holiness will kindly transmit them

to US, shall be copied with all possible celerity, and faithfully restored."
On this subject, see two interesting letters, one to the Archbishop of York and the other to the Bishop of Durham, p. 124, 5.
Albert, Abbot of Gemblours, who with incredible labour and immense expense, had collected an hundred volumes on theological, and fifty on profane subjects, imagined he had formed a splendid library. At the be- ginning of the tenth Century, books v/ere so scarce in Spain, that one and the same copy of the Bible, St. Jerome's Epistles, and some volumes of ecclesiastical offices and Martyrologies, often served several different Monasteries.
The whole Library accumulated by Charles V., in la towre de la libraire of the Louvre, amounted in 1365, to 900 volumes. Of these 853 were removed to this country, upon the English becoming Masters of Paris, in 1425.*
♦ This Collection consisted chiefly of books of devotion, which included but few of the Fathers, many Treatises of Astrology, Geo- mancy. Chiromancy, and Medicine, originally written in Arabic, and translated into Latin or French, Pandects, Chronicles, and Romances. There were only four Classics, namely, one copy of Cicero, Ovid, Lucan, and Boethius. To these were added some French Translations of Livy,* which had been lately executed by order of Kjng John, the prisoner of Poictiers, and were afterwards presented by the Regent Bedford, tohis brother-in-law, and of Ovid's Metamorphoses and Valerius Maximus ; the City of God by St. Austin j the Holy Bible, &c.

Tlie famous Library established In the University of Oxford, in 1440, by that munificent patron of literature, Humphrey, Duko of Gloucester, contained only 600 volumes. This Library was not opened till 14S0, and probably contained many spoils of the French King's Library, some of which we know were presented by the Regent, Bedford, to his brother-in-law Duke Humphrey.
These books seem to have been of extraordinary value, 120 of them having been estimated at 1000 pounds.
The Library of the University of Oxford, before the year ISOO, consisted only of a few tracts, chained or kept in chests in the Chou- of St. Mary's Church.*
In an inventory of the goods of John de Pontissara, Bishop of Winchester, contained in his capital palace of Wolvesey, A. D. 1294, all the books which appear are nothing more than " Septendecim pecias librorum de diversis Scienciis."
In the year 1327, the scholars and citizens of Oxford pillaged the opulent Benedictine Abbey of Abingdon. Among the books they found there were 100 Psalters, as many Grayles, and 40 Missals, which undoubtedly be- longed to the Choir of the Church ; but besides, there were only 22 Codices, which Warton interprets, books on common subjects.
In 1482 the Library of the Abbey of Leicester con- tained eight large stalls which were filled with books.
In the Library of Peterborough Abbey, at the dissolu- tion, there were I7OO Books in Manuscript. The library

of Glastonbury Abbey, the richest in England, contained only 400 volumes in 1248. Among these, however, were copies of Livy, Sallust, Seneca, Tully de Senee- tute et Amicitia, Virgil, Persius, and Claudian. The valuable Collectanea of Leland, who visited all the Mo- nasteries, just before the Dissolution, will afford the curious reader much information as to their literary pos- sessions at that period. Many valuable Manuscripts were transferred from the Monasteries at their dissolu- tion to the Royal Library at Westminster.
The Church of Durham did not escape the hands of the spoiler ; and many of its choicest treasures were then removed from their parent roof.
The Saxon copy of the four Evangelists, which King Athelstan gave to the Church of Duiham, now exists in the Cottonian Library, as Otho B. 9, Cod. membr. fol. The Saxon Book of the Gospels in the same Collec- tion tells its own tale, in the words of Aldred the Saxon Glossator. This precious volume was written by Ead- frid, Bishop of Durham, and illuminated by Ethel wold, his successor, with equal elegance.

acquire or detain so rich a treasure. When the unsettled state of the times afforded Uttle security to the person, and still less to property, tlie Monks had recourse to a pious stratagem for the protection of their literary pos- sessions.
The age was one of violence and rapine, but it was also the age of ignorance and superstition ; and the power of excommunication and interdict, the most sub- tle in its device, and the most penal in its operation, was unsparingly exercised by the Clergy for their own pro- tection in these barbarous times. The most formidable anathemas were peremptorily denounced against those who should dare to alienate a book presented to the Cloister or Library of a Religious House. The Prior and Convent of Rochester declare, that they will every year pronounce the irrevocable sentence of damnation on him who shall purloin or conceal a Latin translation of Aristotle's Physics, or even obliterate the title. That the Monks of Durham had recourse to similar expedi- ents for the security of their volumes those which remain abundantly confirm. To select only a few instances. In a volume of Thomas Aquinas, B. L 10, it is written, ** Lib. Sti. Cuthberti de Dunelm. ex procuratione fratris Roberti de Graystan', quern qui alienaverit, maledic tionem Sanctorum Marice, Oswaldi, Cuthberti et Bene- dicti incurrat." Also, prefixed to a volume of Cassia- nus, cum 17 aliis Tractatibus, B. III. 8., we read, "Liber Sci. Cuthberti de Dunelm. ex procuratione fratris Ricardi de Elton assignatus Communi armariolo. Qui aliena- verit a Claustro anathema sit.'* Again, in a miscellane- ous volume, C. II. 2, we find " Decretales novae, ex dono c2

Cum quibus continentur omnes Constitutiones Novae una cum Constitutionibus Domini Octoboni AngliaB Legati, cum multis aliis. Quicunque alienaverit Anathema sit. — Amen." See also A. IV. 6. Cat., p. 62.
The practice among donors of confining the use of their benefactions to members of the Religious Houses was very frequent. A volume of Ezechiel et Daniel glosati, A. III. 22, bears this inscription, " Liber Sci. Cuthberti de Dunelmo ex dono Magistri Hen. de Mel- samby, ad Commune armariolum, et nulli accoramodan- dum.'* Other books are designated as " ut in perpetuo remaneat in Claustro ;" and "extra Claustrum nemini accommodandum."
As the Papal power declined in England, the spiritual denunciations of the Church of Rome lost much of their ■effect. The Monks, however, did not entirely rely upon the efficacy of the dreaded anathema, but frequently ex- acted pecuniary security for the safe custody or return of their books. In the ** Constitutiones aliquot factae a Prioribus et Conventu Dunelm. abanno 1153 ad 1260," still extant in the Chapter Library, B. IV. 26, Folio 5, App. p. 121, it is enacted, " Quod nullus Liber de Armariolo accommodetur sine memoriali.'* " Item statutum est per eosdem (sc. Priorem et Conventum Dunelm.) ut nullus Liber accommodetur alicui per Libra- riura, vel per alium, nisi receperit memoriale equipollens, nisi fuerit ad instantiam Domini Episcopi." In an im- perfect volume of Digests, C. I. 1, remaining in the Chapter Library, we find evidence that these rules were

uniformly acted upon at Durham. *' In folio primo," says Rud, p. 253, " adscribitur nota qua dicitur Joannes Mainsforth cautionem pro hoc libro, ut videtur, mutuo accepto deposuisse, A.D. 1438. In extremo folio, idem dicitur ab aliis factum anno 1324." See also two works of Aquinas, B. 1. 5, p. 81, folio, for similar instances in 1317, 16, and 23, and B. I. 10, p. 28, for examples in 1306, 1316, 1317, and 1326. Other Convents did not except even their Bishops from this obligation, as the memorable instance of John de Pontissara, whose indenture, dated in 1299, binding himself to restore a Bible borrowed from his own Convent of St. Swithin, is given in the Appen- dix. Even so late as the year 1471, when Louis XI., of France, borrowed the works of the Arabian Physician, Rhasis, from the Faculty of Medicine at Paris, he not only deposited, by way of pledge, a quantity of valu- able plate, but was obliged to procure a nobleman to join with him as surety in a deed, by which he bound himself to return it under a considerable forfeiture.*
Another indenture, dated in 1366, remains to show that, when in that year the Monks of Durham entrusted some of their books to other hands, they caused a valua- tion of them to be made by skilful men, taking the deed printed in the Appendix as a sufficient guarantee for their ultimate restitution.
From an indenture preserved in the Records of Uni- versity College, Oxford, and printed in the Appendix, we see with what formality, and under what obligations, the books transmitted from the Church of Durham to their College at Oxford, were acknowledged and receiv- ed in 1404.

In tlie Collection of Sir Thomas Phillips, at Middle- hill, in Worcestershire, is an indenture of the year 1343, relating to Books lent by the Prior and Convent of Henton to another house. Among these borrowed books Mr Hunter lias enumerated* — *' Two books of Homilies to be read in the Refectory ; the four Gos- pels ; the Meditations of Anselm ; the Enchiridion of Saint Sixtus ; a Treatise by Peter Cluniacencis ; Life of John the Almoner ; Flores et Magna Glossa Psal- terii ; the Meditations of S' Bernard ; Quidam libel- lus inter Rosium et Augustinum, et Templum Dei ; Life of Paul the Hermit j Excerpta from the Lives of S' Anthony, S' Hilarion, andS' Sylvester; De orto Pilati ; Libellus de Manipul. flor. ; Dialogus S.

The engagement to restore these books was formally drawn up and sealed.
It was common to lend money on the deposit of a book. There were public chests in the Universities,t and perhaps some other places, for receiving the books so de- posited ; many of which still remain with an insertion on the blank pages, containing the conditions of the pledge.

The gift of a book was a matter of so much conse- quence as to be formally recorded in every instance. The gift of a book to Lincoln Cathedral by Bishop Repingdon, in the year 1422, occurs in this form, and under these circumstances. The Memorial is in Latin, written by the Bishop's own hand, at the beginning of Peter's Breviary of the Bible, which Warton has given in English thus : — " I, Philip of Repyngdon, late Bishop of Lincoln, give this book, called Peter de Aureolis, to the new Library to be built within the Church of Lin- coln ; reserving the use and possession of it to Richard Tryseley, clerk, canon, and prebendary of Miltoun, in fee, and to the term of his life ; and afterwards to be given up and restored to the said library, or the keepers of the same, for the time being, faithfully and without delay. Written with mv own hand, A. D. 1422."

An equally curious entry occurs in the Catalogues, now for the first time printed in this volume. *' Memo- randum quod W. de Doncaster contulit ad communem liJbrariam Monachorum Dunelmi Unum Inventarium sive tabulam totius Juris Canonici scriptum manu sua propria, post mortem suani eisdem tradendum ita tamen quod ante mortem suam dicti Monachi non adquisierint meliorem librum ejusdem contenti.

When a book was bought, the affair was of so much importance that it was customary to assemble persons of consequence and character, and to make a formal record that they were present on the occasion.
Among the royal MSS. in the British Museum, 9, B. ix. 1, in the Book of the Sentences of Peter Lom- bard, an Archdeacon of Lincoln has left this entry : — " This book of the Sentences belongs to Master Ro- bert,. Archdeacon of Lincoln, which he bought of Geof- fry the Chaplain, brother of Henry Vicar of Northelk- ington, in the presence of Master Robert de Luda, clerk, Richard the almoner, the said Henry the vicar, and his clerk, and others ; and the said Archdeacon gave the said book to God and St. Oswald, and to Peter, Abbot of Barden, and the Convent of Bar- den."
After these general remarks, we may now proceed to draw the attention of the reader to the nature and extent

of the Library of the Church of Durham, upon the data furnished by the followinj^ pages. That Church, it will be remembered, was of antient foundation and rich en- dowment, and from its earhest establishment, at Lindis- farne, in the year Q)o5^ until the Dissolution, cherished within its cloister a long succession of learned men. It could boast of its poets, its historians, and its divines. To say nothing of the Saxon period of its history, Sy- meon, and Turgot, and Laurence, and Reginald, and Bolton, and Wessington, are names of which any esta- blishment might in those days have been justly proud ; and it seems worthy of this Society to publish a Catalogue of the very books from which such men as these derived their deep and varied information. With pleasure do we record the fact, that we have here a copy of the New Testament which might have been handled by Cuth- bert, that eminent man, whose character has never yet been duly appreciated ; that we have the Ritual in which he may have prayed ; and that we have Bede's own copy of the Four Gospels, in his own hand-writing, — a splendid proof of the elegance of his pen, and of his accuracy as a transcriber. But further and higher pur- poses will be answered by this pubhcation. It may be taken for granted that the opulent Church of Durham possessed the best collection of books then to be obtain- ed ; the world will therefore here see to what such a col- lection amounted, and how much has been gained to the general cause of literature in later days by the invention of printing.*
* The Monks of Durham duly appreciated this glorious discoTcry.
Xlii PREFACE.
If it be an object of interest with any one to ascertain what stores of learning an estabUsliment hke that of Durham could command, and from thence to trace the progress of the English mind in classical acquirements and general knowledge, the documents now before us will supply this information with a copiousness and pre- cision elsewhere unattainable.
The study of the Scriptures in the Middle Ages seems to have been conducted exclusively in the Latin tongue. The version most commonly used was that of St. Je- rome, known by the name of the Vulgate. Of this, many entire copies and numerous portions belonged to the Church of Durham, not the least interesting of which is the copy of the Gospels in the hand-writing of Bede, [p. 16.] The most splendid of these bibhcal volumes was that presented by Bishop Pudsey to his church, though the beauty of its illuminations tempted rude hands to cut them out, and thus to impair the value of this noble manuscript.
The Christian Scriptures, in their original tongue, were almost unknown to the inmates of our Monasteries, and Greek versions seem to have been equally rare. In Wetsein's Catalogue of M S S. of the New Testament, only one, Codex 59, is traced into the hands of an Eng- lish Monastic community.
The shelves of the Library of the Dean and Chapter contain nume- rous printed books of ibe earliest date, in which the Priors and Monks have recorded their names, and which remain as so many memorials of their attachment to literature, and of the hearty welcome they gave to an invention which so signally lessened their labours, and multi- plied their means of information.
PREFACE. Xliii
The scarcity of Hebrew versions appears the more singular, from the means of acquiring that language fur- nished by the Jews, who, from the time of the Norman conquest, had been permitted to settle in England. " In Oxford they were numerous, where they acquired pro- perty, and opened a school for the instruction of their own people, and of many Christian students in Hebrew Literature. But towards the end of the thirteenth cen- tury, they were banished ; and the suddenness of their dismissal oblio-innr them to sell their moveable effects, great stores of manuscripts were purchased by the Con- vents, and collected by the curiosity of individuals. The Friars of Oxford, prompted, doubtless, by the zeal of Roger Bacon, are said to have signally enriched them- selves on this occasion ;"* but none of these literary treasures appear to have remained in the Monasteries until the Reformation, for none are noticed by Leland, or mentioned in any of the existing Catalogues.
Many Service Books are mentioned in these Cata- logues. The following brief explanation of these books is given by the Rev. J. Raine, in his History of North Durham, p. 93 : —
" Antiphonarium. The book which, as its name implies, contained those parts of the service which consisted of psalms, hymns, responses, versicles, &c., one verse of which was chaunted by the officiating priest, and the other by the whole choir.
" COLLECTORIUM, CoLLECTARIUM, LiBER CoLLECTARUM.
A book of collects, consisting of short prayers, excerpts from the Fathers, &c.

** Epistolare. The book which contained such portions of the Epistles as were appointed to be read throughout the year ; perhaps full copies of the Epistles themselves.
" Gradale, Graile, or Grayle. The book which con- tained the office for sprinkling holy water, and those parts of the ceremony of the mass which were chaunted responsively, and, as it were, gradually, by the choir.
** Legenda. The book containing the Lessons throughout the year.
" MissALE. The book which contained every thing requisite for the mass.
" Martyrilogium. Tliis book originally consisted of ser- vices in memory of the numerous Saints of the Church ; but the Monks afterwards appended to it an obituary of their respective benefactors.
«« Mortuarium. The Service Book for the Dead.
« Ordinarum, Ordinale. The book of Daily or Common Prayer.
«< PoRTiFER, PoRTiFORiUM. A book of the Same nature as the Ordinarium above, only of a smaller and more portable size.
** Processionare. This book contained the services which were said or sung during the solemn processions made by the Monks to the parish churches in their immediate neighbour- hood.
"Responsale. This was a book somewhat similar to the Antiphonarium above mentioned, — there was only this difference, that the verses were alternately sung by the whole choir.
" Sequentia, Liber Sequentiarum. The Sequences were hymns of exultation sung on the great festivals of the Church.
« SuMMA Sententiarum, or SuMMARUM. A theological compilation by Hugo de Sancto Victore, extracted from the antient fathers. Sec, and constituting a complete body of divi- nity. The two books last mentioned were not used in Divine Service.

« Troper, Troperum, Troparium. a book of Sequences, or Responses, used in that part of the service which preceded the introit or commencement of the mass."
The voluminous writings of those early Christians, the Fathers of the Church, formed the principal study of the Medieval Ecclesiastics, and occupied accordingly a large space in the Libraries of the Religious houses.
The Monks of Durham appear to have used great diligence in collecting the works of the most celebrated and most useful of all the Latin Fathers, St. Ambrose, St. Jerome, and St. Austin. They also possessed copies of other Latin Fathers, including several of the works of SS. Cyprian, Hilary, Prosper, Fulgentius, Gregory, Paulinus, Isidore, and lastly S. Bernard, and the labours of Tertullian, Cassianus, Lactantius, and Cassiodorus.
Of the Greek Fathers, they appear to have possessed only Latin translations of some of the works of SS. Athanasius, Basil, Cyril, Gregory, Nazianzen, Clemens Alexandrinus, Didymus, Irenseus, Joannes Damascenus, Chrysostom, and Eusebius, and of the productions of Origen and Papias.
In these Catalogues also many names are found, inte- resting from their connection with the English Church, such as those of Alcuin, Bede, Anselm, Peter of Blois, John of Cornwall, Sedulius, and Grosteste.
As a proof of the veneration in which the Fathers of the Church were held by the Monks of Durham, it may be mentioned, the *' pair of fair large Organs, called the Cryers," which stood on the North Side of the Quire, were never played upon but when the four Doctors of
Xlvi PREFACE.
the Church were read, viz., Augustine, Ambrose, Gre- gory, and Jerome.*
The works of other Ecclesiastics celebrated in the annals of the Church, are also found in the library of Durham Priory. Among these it may suffice to men- tion those of Rabanus Maurus, the illustrious pupil of Alcuin ; of Sidonius Apollinaris, Rufinus of Aquileia, Peter Damian, the great Reformer of the Latin Church; Berengarius, the great opponent of Transubstantiation ; Gerbert, who, as Sylvester II., was one of the most learned occupants of the Papal Chair ; and Cassiodorus to whose counsels Italy was indebted for repose, and Theodoric for his fame.
The theological writings of the Middle Ages abounded in the Monasteries, and that of Durham contained a copious collection of these now justly neglected works. Joannes de Abbatis Villa, Hugo de St. Victore, Petrus Pictavensis, Petrus Ravennas, Petrus de Tarento, Hen- ricus de Gandavo, Yvo Bishop of Chartres, Hildebert de Lavardino, Gulielmus de Montibus, Egidius de Columna, Petrus Alfonsus, Alexander Necham, Nicho- las de Gorham, Petrus de Ariolo, Johannes Wallensis, Jovinianus, Gelasius, Odo, Gilbert, Nicholas Trivet, Huoro de Folieto, Ricardus de S. Victore, Remigius, and Nicolas do Lyra, the voluminous Commentator on the Bible, all found transcribers and students within the Convent of Durham. The tedious and unedifying Com- mentaries on Peter Lombard's scholastic cyclopede of Divinitv called the Sentences, seem also to have occupied much of their labour in transcription.

PREFACE. Xlvii
Many of the Histories compiled by the Monks, were both in substance and in name Ecclesiastical, but with the History and Endowments of their Churches we find much contemporary information which we should seek in vain from any other source.
Of these works the Ecclesiastical History of Eusebius, and the Venerable Bede's History of the English Church, and the History of the Jews by Josephus, were the most celebrated, and we find them all, with others of less note, in the Monastic Library of Durham.
It was, indeed, the fashion for the Historians of these times, to form such a general plan as would admit all the absurdities of popular tradition. The superstitious le- gend they delighted to detail ; they never omitted a rumoured prodigy, and were ever ready to exaggerate an extraordinary natural phaenomenon. But in this they only followed the fashion of their age, and faithfully re- flect its manner, and thus indirectly furnish us with a knowledge of the opinions and even prejudices of man- kind, which is justly considered as a necessary comment on their actions. The lives of the Saints, composed by the Clergy, were so exactly in accordance with the spirit of the Middle Ages, that the people received them as true stories.*
* The Liber de Vita Sancti Cuthberti, Sancti Osvvaldi, et Sancti Aydani, is described in the Catalogue as "Liber specialis et precio- sus, cum signaculo deaurato." Shewing the value attached by the Monks of Durham to this Legend of their patron Saint.
This splendid Legend, Mr. Gordon conjectures, was used as a Pax at the celebration of Mass, and the gilded Cross inserted in its cover, in order to be kissed by the worshippers on that occasion.
Xlviii PREFACE.
The Monastic Legendary rose in his saintly biography to his brightest image of earthly perfection, and with the same feehng Amadis de Gaul was intended to represent every knightly grace, in its richest state of desert. The Lives of Saints, politically canonised by Papal man- date, were, however, received into the ritual, and re- hearsed in the course of public worship, and in their own age might have been nearly as efficacious in their moral operation, as its sermons and other ethics ; for instruction is never so readily embraced, as when it comes in the garb of entertainment.*
In this service, as performed in the Church of Durham, before the Reformation, we find " the Gospeller did carry a marvellous fair book, which had the Epistles and Go&pels in it, and did lay it on the Altar ; which Book had on the outside of the Covering-, the Picture of our Saviour Christ, all of Silver, of Goldsmith's work, all Parcel- gilt, very fine to behold ; which Book did serve for the Pax in the Mass.^ The Epistler, when he had sung the Epistle, did lay the Book again upon the Altar ; and afterwards when the Gospel was sung, the Gospeller did lay it down upon the Altar likewise until the Mass was done ; iMass being ended, they went all three into the Re- vestry from whence they came, and carried the Book with them."^
* Concerning Legend-makers, Warton quotes a curious story from one of the Bodleian Manuscripts : " Gilbert de Stone, a learned eccle- siastic, who flourished about the year 1380, was solicited by the Monks of Holywell, in Flintshire, to write a life of their patron Saint. Stone applying to the IMonks for materials, was answered that they

That inexhaustible repository of religious fable, the I^cgenda Aurea, was a compilation of the Lives of the »^aints, written by Jacobus de Voragine, an Italian Do- luinican, afterwards Archbishop of Genoa, about 1260.
Its popularity was so enduring and so general that it was translated into French by Jehan de Vignay, a monk hospitaler ; and at a much later period became the foun- dation upon which our first printer, Caxton, constructed Ills Golden Legend. The Legenda Sanctorum, or His- foria Lombardica, and the old Metrical Lives of Saints, were familiar to our ancestors as Household Books,
The comprehensive systems of all sacred and profane events, which, under the general name of Chronica, i)ecame so common in the Middle Ages, though they boar abundant evidence of the credulity or ignorance of their compilers, yet frequently preserve facts transcribed from books which have not descended to posterity.

Symeon, of Durham, was the Annalist of that Mo- nastery in 1130, and his " Libellus de Exordio et Procursu istius Ecclesiae," was edited by Bedford, in 1732, **Ex Codice MS. perantiquo in Bibliotheca pub- lica Episcoporum Dunelmensium." [V. p. 147.] I^egi- nald, another Monk of Durham, in 1165, composed an account of the Life and Miracles of St. Cuthbert, the patron Saint of Durham, which has lately been edited by Mr. Raine from the original MS. in the Library of the Dean and Chapter, for this Society.
The establishment of Schools of Civil and Ecclesias- tical Jurisprudence at Bologna, to which men soon crowded for instruction from all parts of Europe, had a most beneficial effect on the public mind of the twelfth century.
Our clerical Chancellors were usually selected for that high office from their known proficiency in the study of Roman Jurisprudence, and, guided by the wisdom of for- mer ages, did much to ameliorate the rude legislation of England.
The Institutes of Justinian, with the Commentaries of divers Jurists, ' Decretales Antiquas et Novse,'*the Decre- ta Romanorum Pontificum,* and the treatises of many * Doctoressuper Decreta,' includingthoseof Yvo, Bishop of Chartres, the restorer of the Jus Canonicum in France, soon found a place in the Library attached to the Church of Durham.
The number of these jurisprudential volumes with
PREFACE. II
plo?ses, transcribed by the Monks of Durham, plainly show how essential to the education of the Clergy was esteemed the study of the law, and that many of their body were ** utriusque Juris periti."
We have a curious instance of the study of the canon law by the Monks of Durham, in the Memorandum en- tered in these Catalogues respecting the gift to that Monastery, by William of Doncaster, Dean of Auckland, of "Unum Inventarium sive Tabula totius Juris Canonici scriptum manu sua propria," which he desires may be placed in the Library after his death, provided no better book upon the subject be in the interim acquired by the Society.
In the Library of the Dean and Chapter is a Manu- script under the modern title of "Tabulae definitionuni," containing, in the words of Mr. Rud,* — " Capita Non- nulla e Theologia, Jure Canonico et Civili selecta, alphabetico ordine disposita, explicantur ; et scriptorum loca indicantur, ubi de iis plenius agitur ;*' which may possibly be the book mentioned above, or, at all events, t>ne remarkably similar in its arrangement and con- tents.
The study most cultivated in England and in Europe ^y the more active minds, in the twelfth Century, was I flat mixture of Logic and Metaphysics which had cha- racterised the Arabian Philosophy, and abounds in the works of the Schoolmen.
The course of learning taught in the schools was com- prised under the general heads of Trivium and Quadri- vuim ; the former including Grammar, Dialectics, and
* Rud. Cat. CIV. 21, p. 304.
lii PREFACE.
Rhetoric, the latter Arithmetic, Geometry, Astronomy, and Music.
Logic, or rather the scholastic Art of Disputation, was pursued with so much ardour, that it absorbed ail ks sister arts, and triumphed over the circle of the Qua- drivium.
England abounded with these scholastic students in the reigns of Henry the Second and his three immediate successors ; and although they were truly, as Cicero says ©f the Greeks, *' Homines contentionis quam veritatis cupidiores,'* yet their incessant disputations exercised the powers of the human mind, and prepared the way for the future advancement of learning.
The minds of many were by this exercise roused into action, talents hitherto undiscovered were elicited, re- searches were provoked, the writings of the ancient Doc- tors of the Church and of their successors, the early Schoolmen, were read ; in one word, men who would have existed in apathy, and died in obscurity, emerged into notice, and rendered some service to the cause of truth.
The Monks of Durham appear to have used uncom- mon diligence in collecting and transcribing the works of the Schoolmen.
Of the Book of Sentences, a complete body of Scho- lastic Divinity, compiled by Peter of Lombardy, and esteemed as the highest authority in the schools of the twelfth century, they transcribed not only the book itself, but the ponderous commentaries thereon by Thomas Aquinas and other learned Doctors.
In addition to the works of the Venerable and Angelical
PREFACE. liii
Doctor, they possessed those of the Seraphic, the Irrefra- frable, the most profound, the most subtle, and the most resolute Doctors, as Bonaventura, Alexander of Hales, Egidius de Columna, John Duns Scotus, and Duran- dus, were honourably styled in the times in which they flourished.
The commentaries of other writers of less note, and the productions of other Schoolmen, recorded in these Catalogues, abundantly testify to the peculiar ardour with which scholastic philosophy was cuUivated in Eng- land.
The passion for verbal subtleties and refinements is one of the characteristics of a low stage of improvement, and will be found to have perverted the applications of most nations, in the Infancy of their literary pursuits.
The popular cultivation of the dialectic art in the Middle Ages, caused those authors of antiquity to be most sought after, who had exercised the art of Rhetoric at Rome or Athens. Accordingly, among the earliest Classics which attracted the attention of the Monastic transcribers, we find the Rhetorical Treatises and Phi- lippics of Cicero, the Institutiones Oratorise, and Decla- mations of Quintilian, and the Noctes Atticse of Aulus Gellius.
The Metaphysical, Logical, and Ethical Treatises of Aristotle, through the medium of the Latin translations and Commentaries of Averroes, became familiar to the inmates of our Monasteries.
The Monks of Durham added to these works many others on Logic and Rhetoric, as well as the treatises of Donatus, and Priscian on Grammar, the Catholicon

The Roman historians early attracted the attention of the learned in the Middle Ages.
Valerius Maximus appears to have been the favourite das-^ic of the Monks, and his " Dicta et Facta Memo- r«}»ilia" to have been the model upon which Berchorius rompiled " the Gesta Romanorum," afterwards so po- |'ul.;r, in the fourteenth century.*

thirteenth century, endeavoured to relieve himself from a tedious malady, by reading the Bible over fourteen times, with all the glosses ; but not meeting with the expected success, was cured by the consolation he received from once reading Quintus Curtius.* The exploits of Alex- ander of Macedon, the Iskander of eastern story, were naturally blended with the romances of western chivalry, and formed the popular theme of a barbarous age. Jus- tin's epitome of the history of Trogus Pompeius, now lost, was a compendium of such frequent use in the Mid- dle Ages, that its original w^as suffered to fall into obli- vion.
The Polyhistor of that dealer in the marvellous, Soli- nus, the ape of Pliny, was very popular in the dark ages.
The History of Sallust and that of Eutropius were added to all the authors in this department, already no- ticed, by the diligence of the Monks of Durham.
Among the many Manuscripts in the possession of the Dean and Chapter of Durham which are not record- ed in the Catalogues now printed, is a volume to which Mr. Rud assigns a higher antiquity than any of those given to that Church by William de Carilepho. This is " Suetonius, de Vita Csesarum libr. xii.," which was pre- sented by John Aukland, Prior of Durham from 1484 to 1494, as appears from this inscription in the beginning : " Iste liber assignatur nono armariolo in Claustro Ec- clesiae Dunelm' per Venerabilem Patrem Magistrum Jo- hannem Auklande Priorem ejusdem Ecclesiae."f A col-

The Poetry of Rome, unsuited to the taste of the Goths, found a secure asylum in the Monasteries, during the dark ages.
" Statins was a favourite writer with the poets of the Middle Ages. His bloated magnificence of description, gigantic images, and pompous diction, suited their taste, and were somewhat of a piece with the Romances they so much admired. They neglected the gentle and genuine graces of Virgil, which they could not relish.'**
The Monks of Durham, however, appear to have pos- sessed a purer taste, for we find them in possession of the Bucolics, Georgics, and ^neid of Virgil, some of the Poems of Ovid, the Comedies of Terence, the Satires of Juvenal, the Poems of Claudian, and Lucan, and some pieces of Horace.
The only classic Roman authors which Gower cites in his Confessio Amantis, are Virgil, Ovid, Horace, and Tully,t 1402.
Lydgate in his version of Bochas's fall of Princes, quotes Seneca, Tully, Virgil, Ovid, Livy, Lucan, Plato, Valerius Maximus, and " prudent Justinus an old cro- niclere.'* He mentions "noble Persius, the grene chaplet of JEsop and Juvenal," Euripides " in his tyme a great tragician," another called Clarke Demosthenes. J Chaucer was fond of (luoting Livy and imitating Statins, and his House of Fame shews his familiarity with the names at least of the Roman Classics.

PREFACE. Ivii
The study of the Roman Poets naturally induced imi- tation in their monastic readers. Ovid, Statius, and Claudian seem to have been the popular patterns of the I Poets in the Middle Ages.
I Geoffry Vinesauf, in his treatise de Nova Poetria, has
I left rules for this species of composition. Joseph of i Exeter, and Alexander Necham successfully practised I Latin versification.
I JElved, Abbot of Rievaulx, Alan of Lisle, the cele-
f brated Alcuin, the rhetorical Adhelm, the pious Anselm, f Claudius Claudianus, Fulgentius, Ennodius, Joannes de I Garlandia, Guilielmus de Montibus, Patricius, Paulinus, Rabanus Maurus, and Victorius, all wrote Latin in verse after the fashion of their day, and found transcribers in the Convent of Durham, where some of their works re- main to this day.
Those who wish for more particular information con- cerning the Poets of the Middle Ages, may consult, if they can find it, for the book is not common, " Polycarpi Leyseri Historia Poetarum et Poematum Medii ^vi« Halse Magdeb. I72I, Octavo," where many curious specimens of these obsolete productions are given.
The Monks of Durham seem to have preferred the recitation of wandering minstrels to the transcription of Metrical Romances. It appears that only an imperfect copy of Alexandre le Grant, and a copy of Waco's Brut d'Angleterre, with Jordan Fantome, all in the Ro- mance language, are preserved in the Library of the Church of Durham.* Wace's Brut is a French Metrical Version of the

PREFACE.
History of the time of the imaginary Brutus to the reign of Cadwallader, A.D. 6S9, and was finished in the year 1155.*
The great Romance of Alexander was composed about the year 1200. These Metrical Romances are not mentioned in the Catalogues under review.
They contain, however, several copies of St. Austin's City of God, which was the favourite spiritual Romance of the Middle Ages ; and which, as the transition from devotion to gallantry was anciently very easy, gave rise to the famous old French Romance called the City of Ladies.
Many volumes belonging to the Church of Durham are distinguished by the addition of marginal or inter- lineary notes, paraphrases, or commentaries, known by the name of Glosses. They are most frequent in the volumes of Holy Writ, and, being by different hands, serve either to encumber or elucidate the text, according to the learning or ability of their writers. f
* See Ellis's Specimens of Early English Poets, I. 44, &c.
f " Many of the glossed manuscripts, so common in the libraries, were the copies with which pupils in the University attended their readers or lecturers ; from whose moutlis paraphrastic notes were in- terlined or written in the margin by the more diligent hearers.
" In a Latin translation of some of Aristotle's philosophical works, once belonging to Rochester Priory, and transcribed about 1350, one Henry de Rewham is said to have been the writer, and to have glossed the book during the time he heard it explained by a public reader in the schools of Oxford. • Ut audivit in scholis Oxonise, et emendavit, et glossavit audiendo.' MSS. Reg. 12, G. ii. 4to. *In the mean time,' adds Warton, * I am of opinion that the word reader originally took its rise from a paucity of books, when only one book was to be had.
PREFACE. llX
It only remains to express our earnest hope, that these our labours may lead to a search for other Catalogues of .1 similar nature, if any such are preserved. It is only by such publications as this that a due estimate can be formed of the state of literature during the middle cen- turies, and of the advantages which the discovery of the art of printing has conferred upon the cause of learning. That the press has been occasionally the means of pro- pagating the designs of wicked or foolish men, may not be doubted ; but the same instrument which sows the seeds of evil, can, at any time, under a right manage- ment, smother the deadly weeds which would spring from them, and prepare the ground for a more wholesome crop. It is perfectly certain that mankind could never have attained their present intellectual, and, we may add, religious state, had all their wisdom and experi- ence been confined to a few written books, to be found only here and there, and accessible to not one man in a thousand.
while a professor or lecturer recited to a large audience.' " History of English Poetry, II. 169, 170.
Instances of this occur in A. III., I. p. 22, and in numberless other places throughout the Durham Catalogues.
