page xii note ‡ “Terminatum est hoc opuseulum in anno Domini 1362, sub rege Edwardo a Conquestu tertio.” By a misreading of the figures this Chroniole has been described as ending in 1367 in a MS. note on the fly-leaf, and the mistake has been frequently copied. No change in the hand occurs till 1364, where the writer who finished the volume commences.
page xii note § Quia ex laboribus antiquorum aliqua paucula medullata extraxi, hoc libellum conglobatum Eulogium volo nominari. Non enim sine causa Eulogium illud assero, quia studentibus et orantibus maximam preestabit recreationem cum voluerint a labore quiescere.
