Liber Bedae presbiteri de vita et miraculis S. Cuthberti. 1v-58r
- Author
- Bede the Venerable
- Note
-
On f. 1v is a fine full-page picture. The frame is of yellow, enclosing panels of conventional foliage with birds and a lion, in white on deep-red ground, exceedingly sharp and good. The ground of the picture is plain. On L. a king in short dark (purple) mantle over lighter tunic, red hose, crown, yellow hair and beard, stands under an arch with tiled dome: he bends over to R. and holds an open book. On R. a church with tiled roof, clerestory and aisles (tiled): rectangular window in W. gable: ornament at the summit of each gable. In front of it (at W. end) stands a nimbed beardless saint, tonsured, in chasuble (red) over alb, holding up his R. hand, a book in L. On the identification of the figures see below.

Numerals of chapters are in red, usually placed central, in a line by themselves. Initials of chapters are very prettily done in red, green, and blue, sometimes in single colours: sometimes with heads of beasts. The number xviii is written xiiiiiiii

Pontificum sedis apostolicae. 59r-60r
- Note

After Item 1 follow lists of the Popes, of the 70 disciples, and of English Bishops and Kings. I give the text of these in full (excepting that of the Popes) and also a collation with the earliest MS. of the lists, Vespasian B. 6 (V). This, though often differing in spelling, agrees with 183 in some of its most curious errors. Note: James' lists appear here. For his comparison with the Vespasian manuscript see the following figures:

Notes on the Ages of the World and other subjects. 67r-70r
- Note
-
Immediately upon the last of the genealogies follows a paragraph, partly perhaps taken from the Historia BritonumThe attribution of any part of this paragraph to the Historia Britonum is contested by Mr H. Munro Chadwick, who says in a note to me: I doubt the borrowing of the note Quando Gratianus etc. from the H. Br., partly on account of the form Wyrtgeorno, and still more because of quarta, which apparently does not occur in any text of the H. Br. As H. Br. in §§ 57-65 has clearly used a text related to 183 (containing (1) genealogies (2) lists of kings) there is some reason for thinking that the borrowing may have been the other way. Again, the gist of the whole passage Britannia-sexcenti is in Bede H. E. 11, whereas the latter part (circuitus) does not occur in H. Br., or (so far as I know) in any Celtic writer. (see Mommsen in MGH. pp. 132, 172), partly from Pliny (N. H. IV 16. 102) or Solinus (22. 10)

This group of paragraphs, from De trina incarnatione, occurs again in MS 320, ff. 95-100. Some of the matter is also found in Julius A. 2 in Anglo-Saxon, printed by Napier, Anglia, XI, 1. Christianus Historicus I believe to be Cosmas Indicopleustes. The dimensions of the earth according to him agree with those given above. He conceives of it as oblong in form, and compares it with the tabernacle and the ark. I connect the citation of him here with a letter of Koaena archbishop of York to Lullus of Mainz, in which certain libri cosmografiorum are mentioned. (Jaffe, Monumenta Moguntina, p. 291.) See Mr E. O. Winstedt's Cosmas Indicopleustes, Cambridge, 1909, p. ix
