‘Liber vricrisiarum’, identified in title and explicit. The long version of Henry Daniel's Liber Uricrisiarum or Dome of Urynes. Preceded by a Latin prefatory letter (ff. 1–1v). Wells Rev.10:3851–2 [300].
Other texts: Wells Rev. 10 lists 25 MSS and one early printed edition, but makes no distinction between the long and short versions, for which see IMEP 17 indexing Camb. Gonville and Caius 180/213 [1] and 376/596 [1], and cf. 176/97 [15] and 336/725 [14]. See Gg.3.29 [1]. For other copies already indexed see IMEP 1 indexing HM 505 [1]; IMEP 9 indexing BodL Ashmole 1404 [3]; and IMEP 11 indexing Camb. Trinity Col O.10.21 [10]. Rand Schmidt (IMEP 17 p. 47) notes that the identification of the copy in IMEP 4, indexing BodL Douce 84 [6] is incorrect.
