IX. SCOTLAND

Literature, History, Language, Archæology 2595 BIBLIA LATINA VULGATA. 3 vols. small folio, ILLUMINATED MS. ON VELLUM, WRITTEN AND DECORATED BY SCOTTISH HANDS FOR THE USE OF SWEETHEART ABBEY IN KIRKCUDBRIGHT, 406, 441, and 370 leaves, written in double columns, twenty-two lines to the column; with 36 MINIATURES and a considerable number of illuminated initials, as well as many hundreds of painted capitals, and a few borders;

£ s. d.

bound in vellum, gilt and goffered edges About 1275-80 600 0 0 Extremely interesting and valuable; no other such example being known of the art of calligraphy and decoration as practised in Scotland in the thirteenth century.

The ownership is revealed in a note written on the blank reverse of the last leaf of Vol. I. It is LIBER SCE MARIE DE DULCI CORDE QUI ALIENThese words are in a hand of about the year

AUERIT ANATHEMA SIT.

1300.

The first fourteen leaves of the first volume are in a different handwriting from that which appears in nearly the whole of the three volumes. The latter is a fine and regular calligraphy, the former is ugly. In the same ugly hand are written various corrections here and there; and some entire pages in Numbers; so that it is clear the inferior penman was a personage in some authority over the regular scribe, and that he revised his work. The order of the books is: Pentateuch, Joshua, Judges, Ruth, Four Books of Kings, Two Books of Chronicles, Four Books of Esdras, Tobit, Judith, Esther. New Testament: Gospels, Paul's Epistles, Canonical Epistles (James, Peter, John, Jude), Acts, and Apocalypse. Thus it will be observed that there must have been originally another volume between the second and third, containing Job, the Psalms, etc. There are a few small deficiencies even in the three that remain. The last leaf of Judges and the first of Ruth are lacking, as well as three or four leaves in Paul's Epistles. Otherwise the MS. is one of singular completeness, with its arguments, capitula, and prefaces.

There are several interesting inscriptions, besides the one already mentioned. On the blank page at the end of Vol. II, we find written: "Edwardus dei gratia Rex Anglie Dominus Hibn. Dux Aquit. vic' Ebor'. This is of Edward I's time, and must have been written in 1299 or 1300. On leaf 405 of Vol. I, there are some rhymes (beginning Qui non assuescit virtuti dum juvenescit "), signed by "Johannes Mareschallus de Molynes (?) Rector Ecclesie de Gardyno," and on the page opposite "Johannes Brun (?) de Dulci Corde." These are of the fourteenth century. On leaf 324 of the same volume, are these lines (written about 1380) upon the Nine Worthies:

66

Ector, Alexander, Julius, Josue, David, Machabens,
Arthurus, Carulus, et postremus Godofrydus-

Robertus rex Scotorum denus est in numero meliorum.

On 243 of Vol. II is written "N. de S. Niniano," also about 1380. On leaf 441 of the same volume are the words (written about 1400), "God gyd my wt yt I anis myt and com to the port." Of the same age is a memorandum on the last blank page of the second volume, in bad Latin, "Jacobus dei gratia Rex Scotorum venerabili in Xpo pri. Edwardus (?) permissione divina episcopus Candide Case salutem;
