The flyleaves are parts of 3 leaves of a large xivth cent. theological MS.
I. Headed in a late hand Petrus de Ykham.
f.1 Prefacio in opusculum subscriptum de gestis anglorum
Non solum audiendis scripture sacre uerbis
-et saxonibus cesserunt.
f.2b Cronice de gestis ac nominibus regum britonum Anglorum Saxonum et Normannorum
Iste brutus ex genere troianus.
A genealogical tree is carried down the margins of the leaves, and there are also marginal pictures of cities, and buildings on fire.
Ends f.42b with Edward IV.: apud Westmonast. sepelitur.
Then follow three leaves (one folding) of genealogical tables of Saxon, English, and Scottish kings, and dukes of Normandy.
Hardy, III.271, 313 notices Chronicles beginning with the same words (which are taken from the Preface to the Worcester Chronicle) but does not mention this copy.
II. Headed: Nic. Treuet de de VI Regibus.
Atheniensium Romanorumque res gestas.
Ends f.98 on the year 1272:
-designatum omnia penetrantem (?).
Note (by Gale?)
Desunt anni a 1272 usque ad 1307.
Also:
Hos annos habet codex Anindel: et ille quern Pead mutuo mihi dedit
and:
Vide continuationem scriptam manu Pead.
See Hardy, III.295. The MS. is not mentioned. The text has been printed thrice at least, last for the English Historical Society in 1845.
