Thomas, London bookseller, in May 1970; given to the Lilly Library in 2006 by Rudolf and Marion Gottfried. 3 lines in Latin added in a late medieval cursive hand at the foot of the verso. Gottfried Mss. Latin (LA, LAT) French (FR, FRE) The text is from the end of Compline, in the Hours of the Virgin, Use of Sarum, in the Nunc dimittis, or Song of Simeon. Compline for the Hours of the Cross begins with the usual verse but translated into Anglo-Norman, the dialect of French still spoken by the English nobility in the fourteenth century, A lure de complie au sepulchre est cuche / Le noble corus al douz ihesu esperaunce de sauvete(cf. Dean and Boulton 1999, p. 483, no. 966). a later hand, perhaps that of one of the Hungerfords, has added the original Latin text in the lower margin, Hora complectorii datur sepulturi / corpus xpisti nobile spes vite future The Calendar (not part of the Lilly leaf) seems to point to the diocese of Ely, in the Fens, but perhaps towards the north of the diocese on the borders of Lincolnshire. That is geographically consistent with ownership by Sir John and Lady de Patteshulle, in the adjacent south-east Midlands. 166 107 125 f. 1 75 3-line illuminated initial on recto,illustrates Compline in the Hours of the Cross.
