Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue of the Manuscripts and Scarce Books in the Library of St. John's College, Cambridge The age of the mss. I have not attempted to assign, being very far from satisfied of the criteria usually given; at any rate, of my own ability to make use of them. Where any ms. Has an undoubtedly ancient form and appearance, it has been put down, but the majority of those for which no date is assigned, I consider generally to belong to the interval between a.d. 1000 and A.l). 1500: a range wide enough to redeem me from any charge of dogrnatism on the subject. The size is merely a reference to the sizes commonly mentioned in our Booksellers Catalogues. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
