Seneschaucy, legal and vaticinatory texts

  • Brogyntyn MS II.2 [RESTRICTED ACCESS].
  • File
  • [14 cent., first ½], [15 cent., first ½]
  • Part of Brogyntyn manuscripts

A composite volume in two sections, the first, [15 cent., first ¼ (after 1401)] (ff. 1-18), containing the Anglo-Norman treatise on Seneschaucy (ff. 4-7), Walter of Henley's treatise on husbandry in Anglo-Norman (ff. 7-10), and various legal texts (ff. 1-4, 10-18 verso); the second, [14 cent, first ½], a defective copy of an unidentified Latin text on vaticination (ff. 19-24). The two sections were probably not bound together until after 1837.
Section i is written by a single hand, in anglicana, in uniform script in pale ink, apart from f. 18 verso, which was evidently filled later by the same hand. Section ii is written in anglicana by a single hand of the first half of the fourteenth century, in brown ink. There is no rubrication. The scribe exaggerates ascenders in top lines and decorates them with profile heads. There are six stabmarks in the inner margin.

Walter of Henley.
