Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Works of the Right Reverend Father in God, Vol. 5: Thomas Wilson, Lord Bishop of Sodor and Man The present volume, printed with one slight exception, entirely from Bishop Wilson´s own MSS., contains two of his works, the Sacra Privala and the Maxims of Piety and Morality, with a Supplement to each. I. For the Sacra Privala, four MSS., all in his own hand, have been collated. The first three are distinguished in this edition by the numbers i., ii., iii.; I ho fourth, which contains in comparison but few pieces, is referred to by the letters M. H., the initials of Michael Hewetson, Wilsons intimate friend, who gave him the little memorandum-book in which they are contained, at the time of his ordination. Ms. i.a is the fullest, and largest, and latest in date, and has been generally adopted in this reprint as the basis of the text, the various readings of the other copies being subjoined at the foot of the page. The pages, numbered, if I mistake not, by the Bishop himself, were 312, (the last by a clerical error stands as 112 ;each page carefully ruled in two columns. Before p.20, there appears to have been a good deal of insertion and substitution, and hardly any of his own paging. In this part, there are thirty-four pages before we come to his p. 20.
