WORKS of Giraldus Cambrensis, in Latin, viz.: 1. 'Odoporion seu Itinerarium Cambriae', with 'praefatio prima', beg. 'Sicut uariis rerum motibus', table of capitula, and 'praefatio secunda', beg. 'Quoniam ea que laudabili deuotione gesta'. Text beg. 'Anno igitur ab incarnatione Domini 1188'. According to Dimock (Gir. Cambr. Opera, Rolls Series, vi, 1868, p. xvii) the text represents the third edition, and con. tains one or two passages, probably due to Giraldus himself, which do not occur in the 13th cent. copy of this edition in Cotton MS. Domitian A. 1. f. 1.
2. 'Descriptio Cambriae', with 'praefatio prima', beg. 'Ille ego qui quondam Hibernicam Topographiam', table of capitula, and 'praefatio secunda', beg. 'Cum inter varia literarum studia'. Text beg. 'Cambria que adulterino vocabulo'. It is of the second edition of the work (Dimock, op. cit., p. xxvi) and is a good copy of an early MS. f. 94.
Artt. 3, 4 were originally a separate MS.
3. A second copy of the Itinerarium, roughly written with corrections. Internal evidence seems to show that this is the carlier copy of the two, and that art. 1 was copied from it, incorporating the corrections. There is a change of hand at f. 166. f. 150.
4. A second copy of the Descriptio, in the same hand as the latter part of art. 3, and having the same relation to art. 2 as art. 3, has to art. 1. Imperfect, breaking off at lib. ii, cap. 9, practerea quia minus'. f. 188 b.
Paper ; ff. i + 205. 115/8 in. x 8 in. and (artt. 3, 4) 11 in. x 73/4 in. Late XVI cent., the two MSS. being about contemporary. Gatherings of 12 leaves. The first MS. has (f. 1) the names of [Henry FitzAlan, Earl of] Arundel, and [John, Lord] Lumley, and the second (f. 150) that of Lord Lumley. Lumley cat. f. 184; cat. of 1666, f. 8; not in CMA.
