The Chester mysteries, copied by James Miller, 1607
- Scope & Content:
- The Chester Mysteries, divided into 24 pageants, with directions for their acting by the guilds of that city, copied by James Miller, in July and August, 1607. The 7th pageant, ‘De pastoribus gregem pascentibus,’ assigned to the Painters and Glaziers, contains a few notes of music to the ‘Gloria in excelsis Deo,’ expressed by quasi-diamond-shaped notes on a stave of 4 red lines, with the F signature. The Chester Mysteries are supposed to have originated with Sir John Arnway, whose mayoralty is given in Harley MS 2013, f. 1*, as occurring in a.d. 1327, 1328.
