| Notes | Note from visiting researcher, Autumn 2025:
The pagination figure in the library catalogue and, by extension, in the Ledsham catalogue is incorrect. It is presumably based on the page number 150 on the final leaf, but not only are these page numbers not in numerical sequence, but 48 of the numbers are not used: 28-30, 46-54, 58-60, 64-66, 70-72, 79-81, 94-99, 121-123, 127-138, 142-144.
The pagination figure should therefore read: 102ff. |
