  Genealogical chronicle of the Kings of England : [manuscript]

  Manuscripts

  5 membranes, face and some of dorse. Incipit: Temporum summam lineamque descendentem ab exordio mundi cum successionibus quorundam regnorum et regum ad eruditionem futurorum duximus annotare. Explicit: Et humfridus dux Gloucestrie protector Anglie. Et xxiiio anno regni sui accepit in uxorem margaretam filiam ducis Andegavie. Tunc Eboraci erat regens regni francie. Latin. Chronicle in roll form from Adam to Edward IV, in parallel columns connecting the history of the kings of Britain to Roman and biblical history through the Arthurian legends. The text ends at 23 Henry VI (1444), but the genealogical lineage continues to"Edwardus quartus Rex Anglie et vi hibernie" (reg. 1461-83). His face is colored in, but none of his children are shown. A single roundel descending from Henry VI, left blank originally, has"Edwardus" added to it in a contemporary hand. Occasional additional genealogical notes entered by a contemporary hand. Regarding chronicles on rolls, see the discussion of Lyell 33 and related manuscripts in de la Mare, Lyell Cat., 80-85. HM 264 differs from that group, and is closer in format to Cambridge, Trinity College MS R. 4. 52 (incomplete) and to Cambridge, Mass., Harvard University, Houghton Library, bMS Typ 40 (between 1461-64?) with which HM 264 shares the artist and possibly the scribe; see Scott, Later Gothic Manuscripts (forthcoming). At least one membrane lacking; some of the text continues on the dorse, but the dorse of membranes 2 and 1 are blank, save that at the end of membrane 1 there is an incomplete and apparently discarded draft of the lineage of Edward III and his children, without text.
