CHRONICLE OF THE BRUTE, in English. Begins with the rubric "Here may a man here," proceeding "In the noble londe of Sirrie." Ends in the middle of the description of the siege of Rouen in 1418-19, with the words " and manfully countred with our Englisch men." At the end (f. 192) are four leaves which contain a brief chronicle extracted from the chronicle, especially relating to London, and one torn leaf (f. 196) on which are written some stanzas on the kings of England; those relating to William I., William II., Henry II., and Richard I. now alone remain. They are attributed to Lydgate (cf. Harl. MS. 5251, f. 2b). Paper, with occasional vellum leaves; ff. 197. Middle of the xvth cent. Spaces left for titles and illuminated initials, but none filled up except a few titles near the beginning. The name of William Darell, of the 16th cent., is on f. 196b. The fly-leaves are fragments containing portions of an index of contents of a work, apparently on canon law, of the 14th cent. Small Folio.
