Description:
|
This anonymous Middle English text of the 'Life of Christ' is represented in two other manuscripts: Dublin, Trinity College D.4.3; and Cambridge, Trinity College B.2.18, in which it is combined with parts of Nicholas Love's 'Mirror of the Blessed Life of Jesu Christ'. The beginning and the end of the text is imperfect through loss of leaves.
