‘Explicit quedam meditacio ricardi heremite de hampole de passione domine qui obijt anno domini m ccc xlo viij etcetera’ (f. 207v). Richard Rolle, Meditations on the Passion. IPMEP 618; Wells Rev. 9:3417 [3], shorter version. Ed. from this MS by J. Ullmann, ‘Studien zu Richard Rolle de Hampole’ Englische Studien 7 (1884), 415–72 (pp. 454–69), with corrections printed in Englische Studien (1889), 463–8.
Other texts: No other MS of the shorter version is known. Wells Rev. lists 4 MSS of the longer version, including one already indexed in IMEP 10, Uppsala C.494 [1]; some extracts in Latin, and two copies (one a fragment) of another version are also listed.
s. xiv2. LALME I:68 locates the language as ‘W Norfolk, but with slight admixture’, further noting that the large late medieval library number ‘K.14’ on the first leaf might possibly indicate that the manuscript belonged to the Benedictine priory of St Leonard, Norwich.
