Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Lay Folks Mass Book: Or the Manner of Hearing Mass, With Rubrics and Devotions for the People The early English treatise on the Mass, which has for some years appeared among the intended publications of this Society as the Lay-Folks Mass-Book - a title adopted to indicate its purpose - is at length placed in the hands of the members. It has been so long delayed from various unforeseen causes, and chiefly in the hope of finding the needful manuscripts. I have altogether failed in the search for a copy of the original treatise, and our earliest and best text (B) is a transcript of the English translation, which has been subjected to systematic verbal alterations at the hands of a midland scribe of the fourteenth century. From a comparison with text E, which is an independent transcript by a west-midland scribe of a hundred years later, there do not appear to be any variations that leave us in doubt as to the teneur of the original translation. With the help of text C, though that, like texts A, D, and F, has undergone a ritual revision, it would not be difficult to restore the verbal forms, if a textus restitutus were the object of the Society. My attention was in the first instance drawn to the British Museum MS. (our text B) by Mr. Maskell´s extracts from it in the notes to his Ancient English Liturgies.
