Description
  • This is one of the dozen identified manuscripts from the Augustinian Priory of St Mary at Guisborough in North Yorkshire. It includes the Speculum Gregorii (Mirror of St Gregory) by Adalbert of Metz (fl. late 10th century). The Speculum Gregorii was one of the most popular florilegia (collections of excerpts) of the Moralia in Job (Morals on the Book of Job) by St Gregory the Great (b. c. 540, d. 604). The manuscript also contains Book I of the Expositio in Cantica Canticorum (Commentary on the Song of Songs) by Bede the Venerable (d. 673, d. 735), and a sermon that is spuriously attributed to St Augustine of Hippo (b. 354, d. 430). Contents: ff. 2r-127v: Adalbert of Metz, Speculum Gregorii , Books I-IV, beginning ‘Reverentissimo in Christo patri .N. [inserted name: ‘hilduino Alcwinus’] presbitero A. humillimus levitarum sempiternam in domino felicitatem’; preceded by a prologue (ff. 1r-1v) and a table of contents (ff. 2v-64). The work is here attributed to Alcuin of York (Pseudo-Alcuin) by an annotator. f. 128r: St Gregroy the Great, Moralia in Job , excerpt (about obedience), beginning ‘Q uia nonnunquam nobis huius mundi prospera ’. ff. 128r-136r: Bede, Expositio in Cantica Canticorum , Book I. ff. 136r-141v: Pseudo-Augustine, Sermo de Disciplina Christiana (Sermon on Christian Discipline), beginning ‘Locutus est ad nos sermo domini’. The manuscript contains additions:f. 1v: A list of contents and note about Alcuin of York, added in a 13th-century script. [f. 1r is blank].Decoration:Small and large initials in red (some oxidized) or green, sometimes with foliate or geometric pen-work decoration in the same and/or the other colour (e.g., ff. 2r, 6r, 7v); some with human or animal faces in red or green ink inside their letters (ff. 19r, 24v, 36v, 80).
