The words 'Edward 2' are written in the top margin. The tale of how many serious charges are brought against the King by the bishops, barons and knights of England, who tell him that they are no longer loyal to him, and no longer wish him to be their king. Red rubrication and an illuminated initial ' O ' introduce the tale of Merlyn's prophecy about King Edward II. The written space is c.182 x 112 mm and the script is anglicana formata.
