I have examined this MS. minutely, and am
satisfied that it is a copy of Pauthier's C. i.e., No. 20, in our List. Like that (and no other), it bears the certificate regarding the Seigneur de Cepoy. (Vol. i. , Int. , Notices of Marco in later life.) The MS. is fully described in Sinner's Catalogue. It is in very beautiful condition, very clearly written on parchment, with all the initials filled up in gold and colours, and with numerous flowered scrolls.
It belonged to Bongars, whose autograph is on it : " Bongars—l'a de la courtoisie de Mr. de Suj5erville."
[Parchment, fol., ff. 286, 14th century.—
H. Cordier, Odoric, pp. cxiv. -cxv. ]
In a neat running hand resembling italic type. It is much abridged, especially in the latter part.
Small Paper 4to. It is inscribed : " Bongars, de la courtoisie de Mr. Aurel, tiré de la biblioteque de Mr. de Vutron (?)."
[A double sheet ; parchment, and of 14th
century. Fragment : Ist sheet, end of chap. 121 and greater part of chap. 122 ; 2nd sheet, end of chap. 134, chaps. 135, 136, 137, and beginning of chap. 138 of Pauthier's ed. Very similar to the text of the Stockholm MS. Our No. 84.—H. C.]
