Excerpt from Three Chapters of Letters Relating to the Suppression of Monasteries: Edited From the Originals in the British Museum
BY much the greater portion of the following letters has been printed from a volume in the Cottonian Library in the British Museum, (ms. Cotton. Cleopatra, E. IV.) composed of letters and documents, which appear to me to have been selected at some early period from the Cromwell papers, so long preserved in the Chapter House at Westminster, and now lodged partly in the Record Office at the Rolls House, and partly in the State Paper Office. I have added to these a few documents taken from other collections in our national repository, and more especially from the Scudamore Papers, lately added to the treasures of the British Museum.

The significance of the Comperta - confessions of monks and nuns - is highlighted, painting an image of the internal landscape of the religious orders, providing insight into personal beliefs and actions during this time of social and religious upheaval.
