Excerpt from Loci E Libro Veritatum: Passages Selected From Gascoigne's Theological Dictionary Illustrating the Condition of Church and State, 1403-1458 The Manuscript from which the follyvihg extracts are made belongs to Lincoln College, Oxford. It consists of two folio volumes, of 680 and 692 pages respectively, and is written in double columns on vellum. Some of the initial letters are illuminated with great care. A few pages are left blank. From eight to ten scribes, apparently French, were occupied in transcribing Gascoigne's papers, and an estimate, in the distribution of the vellum, was doubtlessly made as to the work which each scribe had to perform. The work was subsequently revised, though not completely, partly for the purpose of correcting errors, partly for that of noting such passages as appeared to be of immediate interest. But for some reason or the other, the corrections and marginal sigla are more frequent in the earlier than they are in the later pages of the Manuscript. The examination of the text appears to have satisfied the object of those who undertook it long before it was completed.
