Excerpt from English Prose Treatises of Richard Rolle De Hampole: Edited From Robert Thornton's Ms. In the Library of Lincoln Cathedral
As regards the prefatory matter of that issue, a revised text of the Ofiicféum de Soweto Ricardo de Hampole, the main part of the Preface, had not only been printed off, but had been bound up for circulation among the members, though it would appear never to have been sent out. It is now distributed, as a separate brochure, with this re-edition of the text and glossary. In view of the obsolete character of the remaining information in the Preface, it has not been deemed advisable to reprint it at this late date. The text, prepared by Dr. Furnivall, had already been printed off; the glossary, which he had left unfinished, has been revised by Dr. Mabel Day, who has also added the Notes.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, an extended and glossed text of an Old English poem attributed to Richard Rolle de Hampole, provides a reflection on Christ, his name, and his nature. The text, dating from the 14th century, is a translation of 'Oyle owt gettede es thi name' and 'Ãat es on Inglysce Oyle owt gettede es thi name,' found within the manuscript known as Lincoln Cathedral Library Thornton MS. 91. The central focus of the text is honorific and devotional; the author exalts the qualities and nature of Christ, his holiness, and his universal salvation. The introduction and annotations provide the historical and religious context for the poem. The poetic text in its original Middle English is presented alongside a modern English translation and glossary, enabling readers to access the original language while understanding its meaning. The book's insights offer a glimpse into the history of Christian devotion and mysticism, serving as a valuable resource for scholars and those interested in medieval English literature, theology, and spirituality.
