Description
  • This 12th-century manuscript contains an incomplete version of the commentary on Gospel of St John and the First Epistle of St John by the Church Father St Augustine of Hippo (b. 354, d. 430). The manuscript's first leaf has been removed and bound into Harley MS 5958 (f. 87). It contains a list of periscope readings for the Gospel of St John and an inscription that explains how a monastic community, probably that of Glastonbury Abbey, should select passages for reading in the refectory during the liturgical season of Lent.Contents: ff. 2r-180r: St Augustine, Tractatus in evangelium Iohannis (Commentary on St John’s Gospel), lacking the first part (I.1-7), beginning: ‘Quomodo omnia per ipsum facta sunt et sine ipso factum est nichil’. ff. 180r-207r: St Augustine, In epistulam Iohannis ad Parthos tractatus (Commentary on the First Epistle of St John), beginning: ‘Meminit sanctitas vestra evangelium secundum Iohannem’. Decoration:One large initial in red with red penwork decoration of foliage and a hybrid creature (f. 180r). One large initial in blue with penwork decoration in green and red (f. 129r). One large initial in red with penwork decoration in red (f. 202r). Large initials in blue, purple, or red, one with penwork decoration in another colour (f. 136v). Small initials in brown or red.
