Stowe MS 36

EIGHT SERMONS "de Morte," and eleven "de Passione" Christi, in Latin. A short introduction is prefixed to the first series, beg. "Cum propriam imperitiam," and each sermon begins with the words "Omnes morimur." The second series begins, "Rorantes sanguine lacrimas" (f. 29b). The end of the volume is lost. The author's name is given at the beginning of each work as Guibertus; and in a MS. at Douai containing the sermons "de Morte" he is called Guibertus Tornacensis, i.e. Guibert de Tournai, who died in 1270. In the Histore Littéraire de la France, vol. xix., pp. 141, 142, two treatises are attributed to him, entitled "de morte non timenda" (in MS. at Tournai) and "de verbis Domini in cruce" (in MS. at Liége). The Douai cataloguer believes the former MS. to be identical with that now at Douai (cf. Catalogue Général des MSS. des Bibliothèques Publiques des Départements de France, vol. vi., p. 209). Guibert was also the author of several volumes of sermons. Vellum; ff. 62. XIIIth cent. In double columns, of 34 lines. Initial letters in red, blue, and green. A few marginal notes in a later hand. Small Quarto.
