EVELYN PAPERS. Vol. CCVII. `An Eucharistical Office or The Wedding Garment or Trimming of the Lamp'; 1660, with later additions. Autograph. The title-page also contains the motto, `Meliora Retinete' and the drawing of an altar with a book and a cross. The order of the elements of the title has been changed subsequently, and the pentacle symbol on the central segment of the altar was probably added in the early 1670s, when the office was adapted to the use of Margaret Blagge. The altar drawing is related to that used by Evelyn for the pact of friendship; see also 78385 F below. Prayers by and for her have been added at the end, including `For my [pentacle] Tuesday' (p. 185) and `A Prayer of [pentacle] before the sacrament' (p. 205). Beal EvJ 184. Formerly Evelyn MS 97.
Contemporary binding red morocco, gilt stamped and ruled, re-backed. 135 x 90mm.
