page xxv note * In St. Peter's College there is an original picture of Warkeworthe, executed in 1498, in a clerical habit, holding an open book with both his hands. This was formerly in the curious room called the Stone Parlour, but is now, I believe, transferred to the library. There is the following distich underneath—
“Vives adoptata gaudeto prole; probato Non ouicunque libet, progenuisse licet.”
In the ancient register of donations to the College is a list of books given to the library by Warkeworthe, and from this it appears that he presented his MS. Chronicle in the year 1483.
