^IT^ HE Manuscripts catalogued and described in this volume
^^ include those omitted from the Catalogue of the Plas
Llanstephan MSS. issued by the Historical MSS. Commission,
and some additions made by Sir John Williams subsequent
to the issue of that Catalogue in 1903.
The preparation of this Catalogue was undertaken by
Principal J. H. Davies, M.A., as a labour of love. The
Arthurian MSS. have been described by Mr. A. J. Herbert,
M.A., of the British Museum ; the Irish and Manx MSS.
by the late Dr. E. H. Quiggin ; the Latin MSS. by Professor
Edward Bensly, M.A. The Index was compiled by the
Rev. J. Bodvan Anwyl.
The sources and other points of interest relating to the
manuscripts included in the present Catalogue are dealt
with in the Introduction written by Principal Davies. In
order to provide a complete catalogue of the manuscripts
comprised in the collections given to the National Library
by Sir John Williams, Bart., G.C.V.O., another volume is
necessary, which will include the Peniarth manuscripts
not in the Welsh language, and therefore not included in the
catalogue of the Peniarth MSS. issued by the Historical
MSS. Commission. The number of Peniarth MSS. remain-
ing to be catalogued is about two hundred. They include
the Hengwrt Chaucer, the Historia of Bede, the Chronicle of
Henry of Huntingdon, and others of considerable im-
portance.

a CATALOGUE of the older portion of the Welsh
Manuscripts of Sir John Williams was made by
Dr. J. Gwenogvryn Evans many years ago and was printed
by the Historical Manuscripts Commission in 1903.* The
Welsh MSS. in the Peniarth collection purchased by Sir
John Williams, and given by him to the National Library
were also catalogued by Dr. Evans for the Historical
Manuscripts Commission. f Practically all the important
manuscripts were included in his catalogues, so that the
contents of the present volume cannot compare in literary
and historical value with the earlier publications. Never-
theless the manuscripts here described will be found to
cover a wide field of human interest and to add consider-
ably to our knowledge of Welsh history and literature in
the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.
Of the two hundred manuscripts at Plas Llanstephan
catalogued by Dr. Evans no less than 154 came direct from
the Shirburn Castle collection, purchased by Sir John
Williams in 1899 ; while most of the remainder were obtained
from the collections formed by Lewis Morris of Anglesey in
the i8th century, by the Rev, J. Jenkins of Kerry at the
beginning of the 19th century, and by Mr. Egerton Phillimore.
A large number of the manuscripts in the present Catalogue

were bought at the Sir Thomas Philhpps sale in March,
1895, and of the 446 manuscripts which have been calendared
in this volume no less than 137 were at one time in the
Phillipps collection. These manuscripts vary much in value.
Some are of considerable interest, while others are utterly
valueless, being merely copies taken from printed books
which are easily accessible, or memoranda and scraps of
paper bound together by the zealous Sir Thomas Phillipps
heedless of their unimportance.
It appears that Sir Thomas bought all the manuscripts
of Edward Jones (1752-1824) known as Bardd y Brenin,
collected the scattered papers which he found amongst them
and bound them in volumes in the well-known brown board
covers. Some of these bound volumes contain interesting
data, and an endeavour has been made to catalogue every-
thing that may be of interest to the student.
There are some important manuscripts amongst those
bought at the Phillipps sale. MS. 10 is the holograph MS. of
George Owen's Treatise on the Lordships Marcher of Wales ;
MS. 67 is an interesting collection of notes by Lewis Morris
(1701-1765) ; MS. 309 contains a large number of letters
written to the Welsh Antiquary Edward Lhuyd ; MS. 235 is
the note-book of Theophilus Jones, the historian of Breck-
nock; MS. 147 is a copy of the journal of Sir Joseph Banks
in his tour through Wales, made by his sister Miss S. S.
Banks ; MSS. 233-4 seem to be a copy of the original MS. of
T. F. Duke's Antiquities of Shropshire printed at Shrews-
bury in 1844. A number of interesting letters are scattered
through the bound volumes of Edward Jones's Miscellanea.
At least forty of the MSS. came from Mr. Egerton
Phillimore's collection and amongst them the Irish and Manx
MSS. calendared by the late Dr. Quiggin. Perhaps the most
interesting is the tiny volume of poetry, MS. 253, written
about the beginning of the 17th century by Thomas Evans.
Another collection which will be found of special interest
to students of religious history is that obtained by Sir John
Williams through Mr. John Griffiths of Swansea. It con-
sists of the MS. papers and books of the late Dr. Thomas
Rees (1815-1885), the historian of Welsh Nonconformity.
There are over fifty MSS. in this collection, amongst them
a holograph MS. of poetry by Vavasor Powel (MS. 366),
The Register of Mynydd Bach Chapel, Llangyfelach (MS.
369), and that of Capel Isaac (MS. 371), as well as an inter-
esting collection of letters written to the Managers of the
Congregational Fund between 1769 and 1811 (MS. 383).
Much of the material used by Dr. Rees for his History of
Protestant Nonconformity in Wales will also be found among
the MSS.
About a dozen of the MSS. formerly belonged to the
Rev. John Williams, of Llanrwst. On his death a portion
of his collection was purchased from his widow by the
Rev. H. Holland Edwards, Canon of Westminster, and
his nephew presented them to the Rev. D. Jones Davies,
of North Benfleet, who gave them to Sir John Williams.
Another portion of the MSS. of John Williams, of Llanrwst,
containing letters and documents of the Wynns of Gwydir,
went to Paul Panton. These were purchased recentl}' and
presented to the National Library by The Rt. Hon. J.
Herbert Lewis, M.P., and are now being calendared.
Other collections are those of Thomas Edwards " Twm o'r
Nant" (MSS. 346-354), Mr. George Dunn (MSS. 431-436),
and the four French MSS. (443-446) bought at the Ashburn-
ham sale in 1899.
Amongst other MSS. which have a special interest are
Nos. 77 and 78 — two books of hymns in the autograph of
William Williams, Pantycelyn, the Welsh hymnologist,
and No. 269 written by his son the Rev. John Williams of
Pantycelyn. There are also holograph copies of poems and
letters by Ceiriog, Talhaiarn and other celebrities of the
19th century (MSS. 307, 192, &c.) A Manx MS. of Carols
(No. 409) was once the property of George Borrow.
In making the Catalogue the compiler has usually made
a complete Hst of the contents of each MS. In a few
cases, however, where the MSS. were of no importance this
has not been done. The cataloguing of pedigree MSS.
raises points of special difficulty, but the compiler has fol-
lowed the excellent precedent set by Mr. Edward Owen in
his Catalogue of the MSS. relating to Wales in the British
Museum, and has indexed the names of houses and families.

The volume is labelled on back " Modern Poetry." The
first 12 pages are missing.
Many of the compositions were written by Evan
Griffith of Twrgwyn, Cardiganshire. The dates are
incorporated in the last lines of each song, but the
author's meaning is not always certain, and the dates in
the latter portion cannot be relied upon. In some cases,
the author's name has been obtained from Cwrtmawr MS.

Dolmeddyg, I^langranog.

of the original MS., the rest of the MS. was copied by Mr.
Philhmore into another book now Addit. MSS. 142b. Though
the MS. is usually attributed to Thomas Jones, (Twm vSion

it was written. The proof of this is to be seen in an Exchequer
Deposition 8 Jas. I., Easter 13, where his widow is described
as " Dame Johan Devereux no we wife of Sir George Dever-
eux, knt., late wife of Thomas Jones, gent." The date of
this deposition was April 12th, 1610. Mr. Philhmore has

35-36, 89-90, 115-117, 142-3 appear to have been omitted
by the paginator. It is possible that he made a page for page
copy of a manuscript in which these pages were wanting.
The old pagination has been preserved in the references below.
The book-plate of Thomas Edwards (Twm o'r Nant) has been
affixed to the inside cover, and the MS. seems to have belonged
to John Ivloyd at a later date. The pedigrees are of consider-
able interest as many of them have been brought down to
1670 and later. The following list of names and places has
been copied from the MS. Three places entered in the list of
contents — Festiniog, Nanheudwy, and Rhiw bebyll — do not
appear in the body of the MS. Rhiw Saeson, p. 174, omitted
in the table of contents, is added below in [ ].

This extremely interesting MS. was written b}^ Thomas

the Llyfr Plvgain or Primer. This book has the following
Title

This copy contains 42 pp. but it is imperfect as it has
none of the Prayers, the Litany or the Psalms. Mr. Egerton

though the description he gives of its size is incorrect. It is

gwern MSS. {Transactions Cymmrodorion, 1828, p. 50),

Early 17th cent. Wtlsh.
A Concordance of the Welsh Bible in the writing of
Robert Vaughan of Hengwrt. There is another copy by
the same writer in Peniarth MS. 238. The present MS. was
discovered by the Rev. Evan Evans at Bala in 1765 {Gweithiau
lettan Brydydd Hir, p. 199) who intended to print it at Car-
marthen {ihid p. 205). It bears his autograph signature and
motto, and also the names of the Rev. St. George Armstrong
William and Mr. R. Ivor Parry who were subsequent possessors.
As a concordance it is vastly inferior to that of Abel Morgan,
printed at Philadelphia in 1730, and to that of Peter Wil-
liams published at Carmarthen in 1773.

Williams MS. 514. Paper. 78 pp. 317x213. Un-

An imperfect copy of a modernized version of the Historia
of Geoffrey of Monmouth. It appears to correspond to the
version in Brit. Mus. Addit. MS. 14872, pp. 33-257. The
Brit. Mus. MS. is supposed to have been written by Thomas
Prys of Plas lolyn, and Addit. MS. ii in the National Library
is stated to have been copied in 1694 from a book written by
Thomas Prys, but the two versions are quite distinct.
The present MS. and Add. MS. 11 were however at one
time in the possession of the same person, and pp. 263-4 of the
latter is really part of MS. 312 and has now been placed with
it. Addit. MS. 14872 is imperfect, and begins on p. 2, 1. 30 of
MS. 312, both ending with the year 8 Charles II.
All the poetry is in the writing of Richard David of Llan-
ymawddwy, who owned this MS. and Addit. MS. ii-D during
the first quarter of the i8th cent. The two MSS. seem to have
come later into the possession of the Rev. Peter WiUiams, of
Carmarthen (pp. 21, 30). The following names have been
scribbled on various pages : David David p. 26, Evan Richard

about the beginning of the i8th cent. It was once in the
possession of John Rh^'dderch, who has written three eng-
lynion at the end of the book, p. 172, as follows : —
Athraw da hylaw hwylus, — i Gymru

Dyscawdwr brau awdwr brys
Ran nefol i rai nwyfus.
Boed llwyddiant ffynniant hoff union, — i chwi

Un difyr athrawiaith ;

Ddewis gu fodd addysg faith. John Rhydderch.
John Rh3^dderch died in November 1735. It is clear
that he made use of this MS. in compiling the English-Welsh
Dictionar}'- which he printed at Shrewsbury in 1725. In the
preface to that book he refers to three MS. Dictionaries in his
possession, one of which was compiled by the Rev. Erasmus
Lewis, vicar of Lampeter. It is possible that this MS. is the
one written by Erasmus Lewis.
The MS. has a label on the outer cover on which is written
' No. I. A Dictionary English and Welsh.' It is written in
the same hand as the labels on the Plas Power MSS. in the
National Library. Another MS. English-Welsh Dictionary,
which once belonged to John Rhydderch is now amongst the
Plas Power MSS.

with reference to William Jones of Llangadfan, dated
Nov. 24, 1795. In the course of the letter the writer

" I must mention to you the reason why Wm. Jones's
letters are addressed to me. He has harboured for some
time a Republican disposition, which I frequently as a
friend desired him to drop every particle into total ob-
livion, but my advice made no effect. His correspond-
ence gave rise to suspicion, his letters were opened,
some never came to his hands ... I was desired at a
publick meeting of the Gentlemen and Justices of this

cautious . . . ."

346-B. Welsh Poetry by John Jones, Thomas Edwards, and
Others.
Williams MS. 548. Paper. 202x159. 478 pp. Half
Sheep skin. L,ate i8th and Early 19th cent. Welsh.
This book consists of four different MS. books bound
together. Pp. 1-48 were written partly by Thomas Edwards
' Twm o'r Nant' (pp. 1-3). Pp. 49-204 consist of the poems
of John Jones, Schoolmaster at Llanddeiniolen in Carnarvon-
shire and are in his writing. Pp. 205-370 were probably
written by David Jones of Caeserwyd, see pp. 325 and 342.
He has also written an englyn on p. 363.
Y Cymru niwynion cymerwch. — y llyfr hwn
HoU frodyr darllenwch,
Difai yw difynvch,
O'm. Haw ar ol myn'd i'r Uwch. D. Jones, Prion, 1794.
Pp. 371-478 were also probably written by or for David
Jones at a later date. On p. 469 he complains of the paper,
" Dyma bapur sal iawn y ges i o gwmpas y rhaneu y Beible
mawr Caerfyrddin a mine a sgnfenodd amo 1789."
Eventually the book came into the possesssion of the
descendants of Thomas Edwards (Twm o'r Nant), from one
of whom it (and the succeeding MSB.) were purchased by Sir
John Williams, Bart., in 1904. This MS. contains a great
many unpublished works of Twm o'r Nant.

Most of this book is in the writing of Thomas Edwards
(Twm o'r Nant). It was clearly a scrap book used by him for
jotting down the first drafts of some of his songs. Others
have however used the book and this probably gave occasion
to the following englyn by Twm which occurs on p. 107.

Williams MS. 550. Paper. 228x89. 366 pp Half-
bound sheep skin. 1780-1810. Welsh.
This book contains transcripts of poems by Thomas
Edwards, mainly in his own writing. It subsequently be-
longed to David Jones of Caeserwyd, whose name is written
on the outside cover with the date 1819. On the inside cover,
opposite the last page the author has written "T. Edwards's
Book 1787." The book has been written from both ends, but
the pagination is continuous. Very few of the poems have
been published, and in many cases they are incomplete. Three
leaves have been cut out at the beginning.

This book was written by ' John David ' who describes
himself as ' chapplen y Cappel vidoc ' in the years 1747-8.
The MS. was formerly in the possession of Mr. Egerton Philli-
more, who has inserted the followmg note : " This MS. was
given to Mr. Howel W. lyloyd about 1843 by the old parish
clerk of Llanelltyd, nr. Dolgelley. It is a collection of 1193
Welsh Englyns (or Englynion) in the hand of John Davies,
curate of Pentrevoelas, Denbighshire (called by its old name,
Pentre Vidoc on the Title page) 1747-8. There is a MS. in
his hand at the British Museum, and another in my own pos-
session. He died, I think in about 1800, aged 90. Egerton
G. B. Phillimore, 18 Oct., 1893."
John Davies read the lessons in Pentrevoelas, earning his
living by clog-making [Gwaith T. Edwards, 1849, p. ix.)
The englynion are all numbered and the names of their
authors appended to some of them. Below a list is given of
the authors mentioned, together with the reference to the num-
ber of the englyn, the figure (3) prefaced to a number referring
to the third part of the work containing " Englynion Gwa-
gedd." A list of the subjects of the Englynion as far as they
are mentioned in the MS. has been added.

on the cover. Two leaves torn out at the beginning.
441-C. Historical Prophecies in Latin and English.
Williams MS. 219. Paper. 265x390. 93 pp. i6th
cent. On the fly-leaf at the beginning is the signature " James
Raine, Durham" (librarian to the Dean and Chapter, secre-
tary of the Surtees Society &c., d. 1858).
A miscellaneous collection of historical prophecies in verse
and prose attributed to Merlin, Thomas of Erceldoune and
others. For similar, though not identical compilations, see
H. L. D. Ward, Catalogue of Romances, vol. 1, 1883, pp. 292-338.
The text begins on p. 14 and ends on p. 72. Many blanks.
442-D. Chronicle of the Brute.
Williams MS. 241. Vellum. 300x200. 342 pp. Brown
leather binding, with gilt-tooled scroll border. Chronicle
OF THE Brute, in English prose Mid. 15th cent. Illumin-
ated initial and border on p. i. Chapter-initials in blue, with
red flourishes. Headings in red. Title : " Here begynneth a
a booke which is called Brute, the Cronycles of Englonde."
There is an introductory paragraph, as in Harley MSS.
1337, 2182, 6251, and Stowe MS. 71, beginning " This booke

and actes been compiled shortly in J^is boke, pe whiche con-
teyneth ccxxxxiiij chapiters, withoute J^e prothogollorprolog,"
Then follows along rubric (as in Harl. 2182), mainly de-
faced, beginning " The prolog of Ipis booke declareth hou |5is
[londe] was callyd Albyon,"
The text begins (p. 2) : " Somtyme in ]?e noble londe of
Surry." Like the majority of the MSS. of the English Brute
(see F. W. D. Brie, Geschichte und Quellen der mittelenglischen
Prosachronik The Brute of England, 1905, p. 62), this MS.
ends with the capture of Rouen by Henry V. in 1419 : " And
]3anne ]?e kyng entred \)e toune, and rested hym in the Castell
til \)e toune was sette in reule and in gouernance."
443-D. Le Vieux Tristan.
Williams MS. 529. Formerly Ashburnham Appendix
167 (see Catalogue of Ashburnham Appendix [1861] ; 217 in
MS. itself), bought at the sale of Louis Phillippe's books (book-
stamp on p. I, sale-cat., 1852, pt. I, lot 1303). Sotheby's
sale-catalogue of Ashburnham Appendix, i May, 1899, lot 106.
Paper. 279 pp. 307x207. Early i6th cent.
Part of the French prose romance of Tristan, transcribed
by [Pierre] Sala, who has prefixed a dedication to the French
King in 22 lines, beginning " Pour obeyr, sire, au commande-
ment," and naming himself " Vostre Sala, tres-humble en
vostre chambre." The dedication is printed in the Louis
Philippe sale-cat. ; also (less accurately) in La Croix du Maine
and Du Verdier, Bibliotheques Frangoises, vol. V (Paris, 1773),
p. 342, reprinted by G. Guigue in his edition of Pierre Sala's Le
Livre d'Amitie (Lyon, 1884), p. 50. Signature " Guillems de
Sala " on pp. i and 3 [probably Antoine or Jean Guillems de
Sala, grandsons of Pierre's half-brother Jean, see Guigue, p. 9].
Begins : " Que en ce temps Tristan et la belle reyne
Yssent estoient dedans Tintagel." Ends : " Tristan demoura
en Cornaille. Et atant deulx je me tairay et feray la fin de
mes comptes, Car au liure ou les ay prins je nen rien trouue
pas plus auant."
Below, in a different hand, " Ce liure est a moy Jehan
Sala " [probably Pierre's half-brother mentioned above].
Illustrated with coloured drawings.

444-D. Yvain.
Williams MS. 530. Formerly Ashburnham Appendix
164 (Sotheby's sale-catalogue, i May, 1899, lot 103), bought
at the sale of Louis Philippe's books (book-stamp" Biblio-
theque du roi, Palais royal," on p. i ; sale-cat., 1852, pt. I,
lot 1306). Previously belonged to N. J. Foucault (d. 1721),
having his book-plate of arms (" Nicolai Joseph Foucault,
Comitis Consistoriani "), and also his arms stamped in gilt
on the calf covers, surmounted by those of Louis Alexandre
de Bourbon, Comte de Toulouse, Amiral de France (d. 1737),
or his son Louis Jean Marie de Bourbon, Due de Penthievre,
Amiral de France (d. 1793) [see J. Guigard, Nouvel Armorial
du Bibliophile, vol. I, 1890, pp. 53, 54].
Inserted at the beginning is a letter to Lord Ashburnham
from Thomas Boone the bookseller, 29 New Bond Street,
April 10 [1852], concerning his purchase, on Ld. A.'s behalf,
of the following lots [at the Louis Philippe sale] : 1108 [Ash-
burnham Appendix 166] for 1605 fr., 1115 (Ashb. App. 152)
for 2150 fr., 1303 (Ashb. App. 167, now WiUiams MS. 529) for
1250 fr. and 1306 (the present MS.) for i960 fr.
A note (signed) by Foucault on the fly-leaf states that the
MS. was sent him on 12 Nov., 1703, by " M. de Charance,
directeur des fermes de Languedoc a Montpellier,"
Vellum. 65 fol. 304x210. 14th cent. Apparently
written in Italy, With coloured drawings illustrating the
text, and a few illuminated initials.
Romance of Ywain, in French prose. Rubric heading :
" Ceste liure est le liure de monseignor Y. et parole de maint
buen cheualiers."
Begins : " En ceste partie dit li contes que misser Yuain
le fis au roi Vrien cheuauchait par une grant forest qui estoit
apellee la perilleuse foreste." The episode of the lion and
dragon fighting (cf. Chrestien de Troyes, Le Chevalier au Lion,
11. 3341 sqq.) occurs on p. i. There is a lacuna after p. 2.
Ends imperfectly : " Nabon dit, Coment, seigneur de
Norgalles, estoit adonc la partie de Norgalles uencus par un
cheualier de Logres qi encores estoit ieune home . . . et
dissoit si grant bonte des cheualerie qui cane."

445-D. Le Roman de Gallehault.
Williams MS. $31. Paper. 280x203. 342 pp. Late
15th cent. Leather binding. French.
Formerly Ashburnham Appendix 223 (Sotheby's sale-
catalogue, I May, 1899, lot 153). Lot 1459 in the Catalogue
des livres . . . de feu M. P. N. Menin des Pinssarts (Paris,
Delion, 1843)* : see note in French, dated 5 Dec. 1843, on
fly-leaf, stating that the MS. was bought for the writer by
Labarq on 2 Dec. 1843, " en vente publique," and that the
torn leaves were " mutiles par des barbares de libraires a I'ex-
position qui a precede la vente."
Part of the romance of Lancelot du Lac, agreeing closely
with the 1513 Paris edition, vol. i, fol. cxlv, v° — vol. ii, fol. xxi,
v°, and corresponding as to substance with H. O. Sommer's
edition of Le Livre de Lancelot del Lac, pt. ii (Washington,
Carnegie Institution, 1911), pp. 5 — 222, but differing widely
in text from the latter.
Imperfect, wanting 3 leaves at the beginning, and having
a few leaves near the end (pp. 305-310, 341-2) mutilated.
When complete, it must have begun, like Harley MS. 6341
(see H. L. D. Ward, Catalogue of Romances, vol. i, 1883, p. 355),
with the departure of Lancelot and " Gallehoz " [Gallehault]
from King Arthur's court (Paris ed., i, fol. cxliiii ; Sommer's
ed., ii, p. i). It now begins : "songes quil songea par trois
nuitz signifient" (= Paris ed., i, fol. cxlv, \°, col. i, 1. 2 ; cf.
Sommer's ed., ii, p. 5, 1. 31).
The title given above is taken from the colophon, but the
death of Gallehault occurs on p. 254 : " Ainsy fut mort Galle-
hoz le filz a la geande le sire des longues isles " ( = Paris ed.,
end of vol. i ; cf. Sommer's ed., ii, p. 155). In the MS. the
paragraph has an additional concluding sentence : " Si se
taist atant le compte de luy et du roy Artus et de sa com-
paignie et rctourne a parler de Lancelot." Then follow fur-
ther adventures of Lancelot (his ride in the " charrete," etc.,
down to his imprisonment in the castle of Meleagan), beginning
"Ainsy est, ce dit le compte, Lancelot perdu que nul nen
scet vrayes nouuelles," and ending " Ainsy demoure Mele-
agan en la court du roy Artus. Mais cy endroit nen parle
plus le compte de luy ne du roy Artus ne de leur compaignie.

LE ROMAN DE GALLEHAULT— continued.
Aincois retourne a la seur de Meleagant " (agreeing almost
verbatim with the Paris ed., ii, fol. i-xxi, v°, and in substance
with Sommer's ed., ii, pp. 155-222).
Colophon : " Cy fine Gallehoz."
The contents of the MS., including the inappropriate
colophon, are practically identical with those of the first
part (ff. 1-142&) of Harley MS. 6341 (like this, a late 15th cent,
paper MS.), for description of which see Ward, op. cit., p. 355.
446-E. Roman de Tristan.
Williams MS. 532. Formerly Ashbumham Appendix
221 (Sotheby's sale-catalogue, i May, 1899, lot 151).
Vellum. 128 fol. 374x247. 14th cent. Apparently
written in Italy. Illustrated by crudely executed coloured
drawings in the lower margins.
The French prose romance of Tristan. Imperfect at end.
Rubric heading : " Ceste liure est apelles le liure de monseignor
Tristain le filz le roy Melyadus de Leono."
Begins : " En ceste partie dit Ii contes qe tant demora Ii
rois Apollo a la cort Ii rois Cloudex com il Ii plot." This agrees
with the opening of Harley MS. 4389 (described by H. L. D.
Ward, Catalogue of Romances, vol. i, p. 356, and denoted
C by E. L<^seth, Le Tristan et le Palamede des MSS. jr. du
Brit. Mus., Christiania, 1905). In the later and fuller MS.
Add. 23929 (Ward, p. 357 ; L<^seth, MS. A), which has the
prologue of Luces de Gast and the usual preliminary chapters,
this passage occurs on f. 346, col. 2 ; the corresponding passage
in the printed Tristan (Paris, Michel Le Noir, 1520) is in
vol. i, fol. xix.
Wants a leaf after f. 6 (cf. Harl. 4389, ff. 76-9) and a
whole quire (6 or 8 leaves) after f. 7 (cf. ib. ff. gb-i8b). The
text agrees very closely with that of Harl. 4389 down to the
point at which the latter ends imperfectly (=f. 51, col. 2, 1. 26
of the present MS.) ; it is much longer than that of
Add. 23929, and that of the printed ed. of 1520. The last page
is almost illegible. On the last page but one (f. 128) is a para-
graph beginning " Quant il a dite ceste parole il comence son
plor et puis dit a Sagremor, Traiez pres de moy cele espee
que ie le puisse ades ueoir. Et il la trait, et T. la prent et la
comence a baisier."
