This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world’s books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject

are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that’s often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book’s long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

PREFACE.
VER since the establishment of the new Cathedral Church
at Salisbury in the days of Abp Langton and K. Henry III.,
if not from the earlier times of Lanfranc and the Norman
Conqueror, the “Use oF SaRuM” has maintained a certain
prestige in England, and even in the Church beyond the seas.
In 1228 Pope Gregory IX. had heard of the fame of Osmund’s
Institutions’, and it was averred by a Roman Catholic writer
in 1608, that “in ancient tymes the Catholicke Bishops of
Salisbury obtayned the Titles of the Pofe’s Maister of the
Cerimonyes, and had their places alwayes assigned them in
the Pope’s Chappell and other solemnityes at Rome, according
to that dignity*" And in the Provincial Episcopal College of
the Abp of Canterbury, when the Primate of All England is
solemnly celebrating Divine Service, the Bishop of Salisbury,
according to antient custom, rules the choir as Precentor*. The
Church of Salisbury in successive generations maintained its
preeminence :—‘ insignis ac preclara, ‘insignis ac inter occiduos
nominatissima,' were epithets constantly applied to it by the
printers of its Service-books ; and recourse was had to members
of the Chapter, as experts in the Rubrick and the Ordinal, by
those who were in doubt and perplexity thereabout, in the
thirteenth and following centuries. In 1256 Bp Giles de Bridport
had maintained* that ‘among the churches of the whole world,
the Church of Sarum hath shone resplendent, like the sun in
his full orb, in respect of its divine service, and its ministers’;
and after the introduction of printing (to judge from the catalogue
of the British Museum) few Churches, if any, had a larger number
of editions of their service-books printed between the years 1475
and 1558, than this unpretentious city in Wiltshire.
That an interest in “Sarum Use” has not altogether died
out in modern times, we may infer from the fact that so many

VER since the establishment of the new Cathedral Church
at Salisbury in the days of Abp Langton and K. Henry III.,
if not from the earlier times of Lanfranc and the Norman
Conqueror, the “Use oF SanuM" has maintained a certain
prestige in England, and even in the Church beyond the seas.
In 1228 Pope Gregory IX. had heard of the fame of Osmund’s

Salisbury obtayned the Titles of the Fofe’s Maister of the
Cerimonyes, and had their places alwayes assigned them in
the Pope’s Chappell and other solemnityes at Nome, according
to that dignity*." And in the Provincial Episcopal College of
the Abp of Canterbury, when the Primate of All England is
solemnly celebrating Divine Service, the Bishop of Salisbury,
according to antient custom, rules the choir as Precentor*. The
Church of Salisbury in successive generations maintained its
preeminence :—‘ insignis ac preclara, ‘insignis ac inter occiduos
nominatisstma,' were epithets constantly applied to it by the
printers of its Service-books; and recourse was had to members

vill PREFACE.
of its service-books have been reprinted for archzologists and
liturgical students. In 1844-46 Mr Maskell edited portions of
the Missal (twice) and of the Manual (and some Pontificals), as
well as the Horae beatae Mariae Virginis. This last was again
edited by him in 1882, and by Mr Littlehales (from another Ms.)
in 1891. In 1851 some portions of the Mymni cum notis were
produced. The Aissa/e was issued complete in 1861-83. The
Manuale (by collation with that of York), in 1875. The Brevi-
artum, in 1879-86. The Processionale of 1508, in 1882. The
Graduate, from a manuscript, in 1892-4 (the rubrick of the printed
editions having been collated some years earlier in the edition of
the Missal). The Afartiloge followed in 1893, and now the Dérec-
forium, or Pye, is approaching its completion, in two volumes.
The * Antiphonale,' ‘Legenda’ and ‘ Psalterium," the * Diurnale’
and * Expositio Hymnorum et Sequentiarum’ still await reprinting.
And a substantive edition of the *Sarum Manual' would still be
acceptable to students. But none of these (unless it be the
Antiphoner, from the musician's point of view, and the * Expositio'
from that of the schoolmaster) can be said to be entirely un-
represented in a modern form. ‘The Consuetudinarium has been
printed in 1845-47, in 1853, in 1883 and in 1898. The Cust-
"marium also, in 1898; the ‘Tracts of Clement Maydestone’
called ‘Defensorium Directorit’ and * Crede Michi, which illustrate
and comment upon “Sarum Use,” were reprinted in 1894. The
Ordinale is about to issue from the Cambridge University Press,
having never been in print before. A ‘Zyropartum’ has been
printed in 1894; but such books can hardly be included among
those of Sarum, as they were, as a species, nearly extinct when
that ** Use" became developed. The present century may
not improbably see a CoZearius and Capitularius in print, the
Antiphoner and Tonal, and possibly some of the other service-
books which we have already mentioned. The Liber Festivalts,
as a book of sermons, would complete the set.
But while there has been a fair supply of books of Sarum
Use, there has hardly been one among them which belonged
. in any special way to the Mother-Church of Salisbury itself.
It is this fact, that our manuscript Processional was used
in the Cathedral Church, and had been written for it specially,
that gives it a special claim on our attention, and has called
for its appearance in a printed form.

! The late Rev. J. R. Lunn was of opinion that St Alban was put into the
Anglican Kalendar at June 17th, by a mis-reading of the numeral ‘xxii’ as
‘xvii.’ He is however found placed on the 17th in the Sarum Missa/e of 1508,
in a Bangor Ms., in the Preces Privatae of 1568, and in a Psalter of 1617, as
well as in the Prayer Book Kalendar of 1662.

INTRODUCTION.
THE Sarum Processionale, still preserved among the
treasures of Salisbury Cathedral (MS. 148 in the Chapter
Library), consists of 50 leaves of vellum, numbered recently
with pencil, and bound (perhaps in the 17th century) in a
smooth vellum cover.
Two fly-leaves of vellum at the beginning contain no
old writing, but on the rough leaf which once was attached
to the boards some old hand has written ‘ Cányngs, to try
a pen, and on the verso are two clauses for insertion at the
Bidding the Bedes (which see below, p. 24).
Leaf 1 contains the list of prebends, with the daily
psalms attached. Leaf 2 is ruled, possibly for an orna-
mental title, but these leaves are not part of the original
book. Leaves 3—8 contain the kalendar in blue, red, and
black. The text of the processional begins on leaf ro,
line 3 (after the select gospels, which run from leaf 9 to the
top of 10).
In its original state it consisted of six eight-leaf quires,
or 48 leaves of vellum. Of these the whole of the third
quire is lost (fo. 17—24), as well as the first and last
leaves of the fourth quire (fo. 25, 32). Thus the book now
wants all from the second week in Advent to the middle
of the Ash Wednesday services, and again part of the
Maundy Thursday service. The original book was written
about 1445. In my reprint, the missing portion has been
to a considerable extent supplied from other sources.
On the other hand the original manuscript at Salisbury
has certain insertions or additions, viz.: four leaves at the
beginning, on the third of which (now numbered 1*) is a
list of psalms appropriated to the Prebends: two leaves
(now numbered 13, 14) inserted in the second quire as a
revised list of names for commemoration at Bidding the
Bedes : a four-leaf quire near the end of the book to hold
xviii INTRODUCTION.
documents relating to the Dean and Chapter (now 43—46):
and four (formerly six) other leaves (now 47— 50), which
last quire may have formed a blank sheet at the end of
the original volume, and now has only one or two docu-
ments entered near the end.
Although the Salisbury MS. has many passages in
common with the ordinary ‘ Processionale ad usum Insignis
et preclare ecclesie Sarum’ as it was printed by Pynson, in
1502!, and by others, and reprinted under Dr Henderson's
editorship in 1882, yet it is in reality a different book in
some noticeable particulars.
The printed Processionale is much concerned with
Antiphonae ‘ad processionem, and with those ‘22 tntroitu
chori’ and ‘1% redeundo": but our manuscript takes no
account of them. Its language invariably is ‘fost in-
troitum chori," ‘fizzfa processione" or ' feracta processione."
It picks up the processions at their concluding stage.
It has neither of the litanies, no service ‘ad festes, no
* Exultet, no ‘Salve festa dies’; and it gives very few
antiphons in full.
In fact it presupposes the existence of an antiphoner,
and also (as it seems to me) of an ordinary processional,
and undertakes merely to supplement those service-books.
It is a book, in the first place, to be taken up or used
post introitum chori, when the chief part of the procession
is ended. At the same time it supplies directions for
certain ceremonies which were to be performed at the
altar, or at subordinate altars, or in the parochial or
! A copy of Pynson's Processionale 1502 is in the Library of St John's
College, Oxford. It is a few years earlier than the edition used by Dr
Henderson.
* HENRY BRADSHAW made an interesting observation that *' the Morning
and Evening Anthems in our 'Prayer-Book' do not correspond to one
another so closely as might at first sight appear to be the case. The Morning
Anthem comes immediately before the Litany, which precedes the Com-
munion Service, and corresponds to the Processional Anthem or Respond
sung at tbe churchyard procession before Mass. The Evening Anthem, on
the other hand, follows the third Collect, and corresponds to the Processional
Anthem or Respond sung ‘eundo et redewndo, in going to, and returning
from, some subordinate altar in the church at the close of Vespers.” — Memoir
of H. Bradshaw, by G. W. Prothero, Appendix I. p. 424.
INTRODUCTION. xix
monastic churches of the city; and these ceremonies or
processions are for the most part different from, or ad-
ditional to, what we find in the ordinary books.
If I might hazard a conjecture, I should say, that the
MS. was originally composed about the time of Bp Aiscough
for the use of one of the Senior Canons, the Precentor, or
other principalis persona, who might from time to time be
called upon to execute the principal part of the service in
absence of the Bishop and the Dean.
The special interest of the manuscript lies in its con-
taining rites peculiar to the Cathedral Church of Salisbury
itself. Such is the form for the Bidding of the Bedes which
is here found in three editions (so to call them), the first as
written about 1440, the second revised up to date about
1485 —90, and the third written out again in the time of
Philip and Mary, when the old forms, much corrected and
augmented in the margins, had become tiresome to read.
Such likewise is the publication of the Relicks by which
Salisbury Cathedral was at once privileged and rendered
famous. Such again is the order for visiting and washing
the altars, which has a local colour quite distinct from the
common rule printed for parish churches. The former
gives us some information about the internal topography
of the Cathedral, which so far as I am aware has been
generally overlooked’. The Maundy potus caritatis is
dismissed in other books in a single line; but here the
curious custom is fully described. The latter part of the
volume contains particulars about processions of respect
(causa veneracionts*), and also forms and oaths for use at
enthronizations, installations, and admissions of members of
the Chapter in the Cathedral Choir or Chapter House. It
is no doubt mainly to the existence of these precedents,
which were of practical value, that the manuscript owes its
1 A plan or ichnography of Salisbury Cathedral has been printed more
than once in past years, but with certain blank spaces which the rubrics of
this Ms. would help to fill. I have attempted to give a fuller diagram (at p. 73)
in accordance with the lists of altars &c. which I have given at pp. 213,
214—-216.

parish churches) in the printed Processionale, p. 169.

survival through the period when ‘monuments of super-
stition’ were destroyed in a wholesale manner.
On the other hand the fear of superstition, or some
other cause, has deprived the MS. of several pages of the
proprium de tempore, which have been torn away and lost.
Among other things the services for the Chorister Bishop,
or Episcopus Puerorum, and the Reconciliation of the
Penitents have been abstracted, and I have had recourse to
other MSS, and to the printed service books, to supply the
gap (pp. 49—64, 69, 70). The reader will observe that I
have not been content to attempt to imitate the brevity of
the MS. in its more meagre passages, but I have thought it
better on the whole to be somewhat liberal in my extracts,
as the original sometimes is.
The manuscript contains some entries and additions
with reference to proceedings of the Dean and Chapter.
These were made at various dates up to the time of Queen
Elizabeth, and there are two or three notes in a seventeenth
century hand.
The reader will notice at once the series of thirteen
rude woodcuts on pp. 18, 49, 63, &c. They do not occur
in the MS. itself, but appear in several printed editions of
the Sarum Processionale from 1502 to 1530, and a second
type from 1519 to 1558. The colophon of the Antwerp
edition of 1523, printed by F. Byrckman, for Chr. Endovi-
ensis, thus refers to the woodcuts; “ Processionale, cum
bonis notulis et bonis ligaturis: atque cum stationibus
picturatis infra appositis" And in the book itself the
reference ‘ut patet in pictura, vel in statione que sequitur’
occurs in our extract on p. 9o. (See also pp. 84, 87.)
Dr W. G. Henderson, the Dean of Carlisle, to whom
liturgical students are so deeply indebted, printed copies of
these diagrams in 1882, in his privately printed text of the
Sarum Processtonale of 1508, and, his book being now rather
scarce, he very kindly allowed us the use of his woodcut-
blocks. I have revised them by the woodcuts in the
processionals of 1502, 1519, &c., pointing out the principal
deviations of the second type from the earlier one, and I
have added the arabic numerals in each diagram and the
key subjoined to each of them, so that they will, I hope, be
INTRODUCTION. xxi
easily intelligible. They were not, of course, intended to
be in any sense finished drawings, but rough charts to
indicate the relative positions of the various ministers and
personages in a procession or a station. Thus a verge or
baton (on p. 49) shows the sacrist or verger leading the
procession and turning off to the left hand, a water-bucket
and 'strinkell' shows that the aguaebajulus, or boy with
holy-water, follows him, three crosses indicate the positions
of three crucifers, and the shaven crowns tell that they are
acolites. The other shavelings are subdeacon, deacon, and
priest, the last being distinguished by the indication of a
cope'; and so forth. The fire (p. 82) and the triple taper,
or hasta, on pp. 82, 84 will be noticed ; so will the tau-shaped
staves of the rectores chori on p. 90, the conventional amices
on p. 96, /eo and draco on p. 93, the palms and the other
boughs on p. 67, and the bundles of tapers on p. 99.
The Kalendar prefixed to the volume is of the ordinary
Sarum character; but the addition of ‘ova festa, in a
slightly different hand, is noteworthy.
The entry of the Dedicacto Eccleste Cathedralis Sarum
on the last day of September is, I believe, almost unique*.
Having been sadly smudged at some time, probably when
K. Henry VIII. in 1536 (anticipating in some measure the
policy of Napoleon) ordered that the feasts should be kept
upon a Sunday throughout the realm, this entry has long
been forgotten’.
1 The clearest set of woodcuts (twelve in number) is found in the editions
of 1502, 1508, 1528 (Ruremund), and these we have copied in twelve instances,
merely indicating the principal variations of the later set by dotted lines or the
like. We give one specimen of the other set of thirteen (which occurs in 1519,
1523, 1525, 1530, N. Prevost, 1531, 1544, 1545, and 1558) at the Service for
Christmas Day, p. 49, which had no prototype in the earlier set. The later
set, though generally indistinct in execution, has shown more care taken in
depicting the copes of the priests and rulers of the choir. Regnault’s edition
of 1530 contains 13 diagrams, but these are rather more elaborate than those of
the later set. The editions of 1517, 1554—57 contain no diagrams.
2 [t is found here, so far as I can learn at present, in the Syon Ms. 7arti-
logium (Latin), and in Ri. Whytford’s English compilation ‘the Martiloge,
p. 154 (ed. Dewick and Procter).
5 The entry of the Feast of the Dedication was discovered by the Rev.
S. M. Lakin, M.A., Librarian of the Cathedral, and was deciphered by him
with the help of my brother, the Bishop of Salisbury. When the sun is
shining all the letters come out plainly in the original Ms.
xxii INTRODUCTION.
A Suffrage in honour of St Osmund has been added at
the foot of one of the leaves (28°) circ. 1465.
The original part of the MS. certainly cannot be earlier
than 1434— 5, the date of the special ‘ Form of the Greater
Cursing' then provided for Cathedrals in a Convocation of
the clergy (p. 44, fo. 19"); and reference is made near the end
(p. 113, fo. 39°, 40°) to the Statutum super Thesauro of 1440
as ‘de novo editum. On the other hand, it was written
earlier than 1471, as the obit of Henry VI. is an insertion
a little later than the original drafting, and for a similar
reason I should place it after the death of Bishop Chandler,
but before the murder of Bishop Aiscough, 29 June 1450.
Thus we may conclude that the book was written about
1441—50.
After the Kalendar', the book opens with a set of four
liturgical Gospels. These are, in the Sarum use, the
lections proper, (1) for the Mass Rorate (of the Blessed
Virgin) and likewise for Lady Day, (2) for Epiphany,
(3) for Ascension Day, and (4) for the third Mass on
Christmas Day.
The Salisbury Custom-Book (cap. 35) prescribed that
the Bishop (if present) should be the celebrant at the last-
named mass, and that the Gospel should be read by the
first canon on the roll (#atricula). The like would happen
for the Gospel on Ascension Day (cap. 36) when the roll
was begun de novo, and on the other feasts the Gospel was
to be read by a Canon in the order of the roll (:2:d.).
The Christmas Gospel (‘/ principio’), as is well known,
was said on other days at the end of mass, and had, I
believe, an indulgence attached to its use. As the other
select gospels find a place also in some of the Horae (see
below, p. 17 7.) they may have had a devout, if not a
superstitious value attached to them.
A list of prebendal Psalms prefixed to the volume, and
printed at p. 129 below, has suggested to me that I should
include in this volume some lists of prebends in the order
1 A second kalendar, containing an Obit-list, will be found at pp. 331—242.
INTRODUCTION. xxiii
of places in the Chapter House (pp. 137, 269) and of Stalls
in Choir (pp. 269—73). Ihave also reprinted (in a fuller
form than that in which recent editors of services from the
Sarum Manuale have given it) the general sentence of
excommunication.
A few other miscellanea from the Episcopal and
Capitular Records have been added. As will be seen by
reference to our Table of Contents, these relate to In-
dulgences, the Cathedral Confraternity, Bp Richard Beau-
champ's Visitation in 1475, Inventories of Jewels, Vestments
and Ornaments at Salisbury from 1536 to 1222, back to
Old Sarum in 1214 and 1090, the Chantries, and the Obit
Kalendar, and the sites of Chapels, Altars, &c. in Salisbury
Cathedral Church. To this last-named topic I have de-
voted my attention for several years, and, with the help of
information contributed by Mr A. R. Malden, I had proposed
to print a dissertation on the subject with a set of illustrative
notes. Owing to some carelessness on my part my notes
were printed from an old draught and not from a fuller
collection which I had made, and, though errors were
corrected in the press, it was not until the sheets had gone
too far that I observed that many notes which I had
intended to include were missing.
The consequence is that I must ask the reader's pardon
for giving him, besides the preliminary dissertation on the
Cathedral topography (pp. 187—205) and its supplement
(pp. 217—223) on rival theories, a double set of illustrative
notes, on pp. 206—216, and pp. 277—307, respectively.
The Statute on Vicars Choral (1472), not included in
the collection of Statuta edited by Dayman and Jones in
1883, and the documents on the Services of St Gabriel
(1451) and St Raphael (1456), with the Treasurer's com- -
plaint in 1452 on the burthen imposed on him by the
institution of additional festivals, will I hope prove ac-
ceptable.
The documents relating to the services by Bp Lacy of
Exeter in honour of the Archangels, give us some insight
into the method by which such offices were introduced.
For these, as well as for the list of Chorister Bishops,
and for many of the notes relating to the sites of the altars

and other subjects, we have to thank Mr Arthur Russell
Malden, who is doing much to make available to students
the muniments at Salisbury, which are partly in his custody.
Dr J. Wickham Legg has looked over several of the
sheets, and has kindly made a few suggestions, but is in no
way responsible for the details or arrangement of the book.
For frequent help in matters relating to the topography
of Salisbury Cathedral I have to thank Mr George Free-
mantle, Verger, Church Sexton and Clerk of Salisbury,
who combines with the enthusiasm of his predecessor
William Dodsworth’, the minute accuracy, the local know-
ledge, and the refined and ready courtesy | of my old friend
Mr Logsdail of Lincoln.
To complete the history of Salisbury Commemorations
of Benefactors (see pp. 24—31, 183—4, 229—42) I have
included the form which is at the present time in use
(pp. 308, 309—18).
For this, and for some other prayers in English, I have
to thank my Brother, the Bishop of Salisbury ; and I wish
also to record my grateful acknowledgements to the late
Dean of Salisbury, the Very Reverend George David
Boyle, M.A., a kind friend and genial scholar, who was
ready in every manner possible to forward the present
work.
The Arms of the Church of Salisbury, shown upon the
binding of this book, are from the design of Mr J. Arthur
Reeve, 1886.
CHR. WORDSWORTH.
! William Dodsworth, born in Salisbury in 1760, died 7 Aug. 1836, and
was buried in the Cloister, just outside the entrance to the Chapter House,
according to his own desire, near Mr Francis Price the architect, who had died
in 1753. Dodsworth was for upwards of forty-nine years Verger of Salisbury
Cathedral Church. In 1814 42 Historical Account of the Episcopal See and
Cathedral Church of Sarum or Salisbury was published by subscription, with
engravings, pp. xx + 240, imperial quarto, really written by Mr Hatcher, but in
the latter portion from information supplied by Dodsworth, bears the latter’s
name. He had written a smaller guide to the Cathedral Church, which went
through six editions between 1792 and 1800.

PREFACE.
VER since the establishment of the new Cathedral Church
at Salisbury in the days of Abp Langton and K. Henry III.,
if not from the earlier times of Lanfranc and the Norman
Conqueror, the “Use or SaRuM" has maintained a certain
prestige in England, and even in the Church beyond the seas.
In 1228 Pope Gregory IX. had heard of the fame of Osmund’s
Institutions’, and it was averred by a Roman Catholic writer
in 1608, that “in ancient tymes the Catholicke Bishops of
Salisbury obtayned the Titles of the Popes Maister of the
Cerimonyes, and had their places alwayes assigned them in
the Pope’s Chappell and other solemnityes at Nome, according
to that dignity*." And in the Provincial Episcopal College of
the Abp of Canterbury, when the Primate of All England is
solemnly celebrating Divine Service, the Bishop of Salisbury,
according to antient custom, rules the choir as Precentor*. The
Church of Salisbury in successive generations maintained its
preeminence :—‘ insignis ac preclara, ‘insignis ac inter occiduos
nominatissima,’ were epithets constantly applied to it by the
printers of its Service-books ; and recourse was had to members
of the Chapter, as experts in the Rubrick and the Ordinal, by
those who were in doubt and perplexity thereabout, in the
thirteenth and following centuries. In 1256 Bp Giles de Bridport
had maintained‘ that ‘among the churches of the whole world,
the Church of Sarum hath shone resplendent, like the sun in
his full orb, in respect of its divine service, and its ministers’;
and after the introduction of printing (to judge from the catalogue
of the British Museum) few Churches, if any, had a larger number
of editions of their service-books printed between the years 1475
and 1558, than this unpretentious city in Wiltshire.
That an interest in “Sarum Use” has not altogether died
out in modern times, we may infer from the fact that so many

of its service-books have been reprinted for archzologists and
liturgical students. In 1844-46 Mr Maskell edited portions of
the Missal (twice) and of the Manual (and some Pontificals), as
well as the Horae beatae Mariae Virginis. This last was again
edited by him in 1882, and by Mr Littlehales (from another Ms.)
in 1891. In 1851 some portions of the Hymn cum notis were
produced. The Jfissa/e was issued complete in 1861-83. The
Maauale (by collation with that of York), in 1875. The reo:
arium, in 1879-86. The Processionale of 1508, in 1882. The
Gradua/le, from a manuscript, in 1892-4 (the rubrick of the printed
editions having been collated some years earlier in the edition of
the Missal). The Afartiloge followed in 1893, and now the Derec-
lorium, or Pye, is approaching its completion, in two volumes.
The *Antiphonale, ‘ Legenda’ and * Psalterium, the ‘ Diurnale’
and ‘Expositio Hymnorum et Sequentiarum’ still await reprinting.
And a substantive edition of the ‘Sarum Manual’ would still be
acceptable to students. But none of these (unless it be the
Antiphoner, from the musician’s point of view, and the ‘ Expositio’
from that of the schoolmaster) can be said to be entirely un-
represented in a modern form. The Consuetudinarium has been
printed in 1845-47, in 1853, in 1883 and in 1898. The Custo-
marium also, in 1898; the ‘Tracts of Clement Maydestone’
called ‘ Defensorium Dtrectorii’ and * Crede Michi, which illustrate
and comment upon “Sarum Use,” were reprinted in 1894. The
Ordinale is about to issue from the Cambridge University Press,
having never been in print before. A ‘Zyroparium’ has been
printed in 1894; but such books can hardly be included among
those of Sarum, as they were, as a species, nearly extinct when
that * Use" became developed. The present century may
not improbably see a Co/fectarius and Capitularius in print, the
Antiphoner and Tonal, and possibly some of the other service-
books which we have already mentioned. The Liber Festivaéis,
as a book of sermons, would complete the set.
But while there has been a fair supply of books of Sarum
Use, there has hardly been one among them which belonged
in any special way to the Mother-Church of Salisbury itself.
It is this fact, that our manuscript Processional was used
in the Cathedral Church, and had been written for it specially,
that gives it a special claim on our attention, and has called
for its appearance in a printed form.

! The late Rev. J. R. Lunn was of opinion that St Alban was put into the
Anglican Kalendar at June 17th, by a mis-reading of the numeral ‘xxii’ as
‘xvii.’ He is however found placed on the 17th in the Sarum Affssale of 1508,
in a Bangor Ms., in the Preces Privatae of 1568, and in a Psalter of 1617, as
well as in the Prayer Book Kalendar of 1662.
* On the date assigned to St Cyprian of Carthage in the Kalendar, see
Abp. Benson’s Cyfrian, his Life, &c., 1897, pp. 610—620.
INTRODUCTION.
THE Sarum Processionale, still preserved among the
treasures of Salisbury Cathedral (MS. 148 in the Chapter
Library), consists of 50 leaves of vellum, numbered recently
with pencil, and bound (perhaps in the 17th century) in a
smooth vellum cover.
Two fly-leaves of vellum at the beginning contain no
old writing, but on the rough leaf which once was attached
to the boards some old hand has written ' Cányngs, to try
a pen, and on the verso are two clauses for insertion at the
Bidding the Bedes (which see below, p. 24).
Leaf 1 contains the list of prebends, with the daily
psalms attached. Leaf 2 is ruled, possibly for an orna-
mental title, but these leaves are not part of the original
book. Leaves 3—8 contain the kalendar in blue, red, and
black. The text of the processional begins on leaf ro,
line 3 (after the select gospels, which run from leaf 9 to the
top of 10).
In its original state it consisted of six eight-leaf quires,
or 48 leaves of vellum. Of these the whole of the third
quire is lost (fo. 17—24), as well as the first and last
leaves of the fourth quire (fo. 25, 32). . Thus the book now
wants all from the second week in Advent to the middle
of the Ash Wednesday services, and again part of the
Maundy Thursday service. The original book was written
about 1445. In my reprint, the missing portion has been
to a considerable extent supplied from other sources.
On the other hand the original manuscript at Salisbury
has certain insertions or additions, viz.: four leaves at the
beginning, on the third of which (now numbered r?) is a
list of psalms appropriated to the Prebends: two leaves
(now numbered 13, 14) inserted in the second quire as a
revised list of names for commemoration at Bidding the
Bedes: a four-leaf quire near the end of the book to hold
xviii INTRODUCTION.
documents relating to the Dean and Chapter (now 43—46):
and four (formerly six) other leaves (now 47— 50), which
last quire may have formed a blank sheet at the end of
the original volume, and now has only one or two docu-
ments entered near the end.
Although the Salisbury MS. has many passages in
common with the ordinary ‘ Processionale ad usum Insignis
et preclare ecclesie Sarum’ as it was printed by Pynson, in
1502!, and by others, and reprinted under Dr Henderson's
editorship in 1882, yet it is in reality a different book in
some noticeable particulars.
The printed Processtonale is much concerned with
Antiphonae ‘ad processionem, and with those ' zn tntrottu
chori! and ‘in redeundo": but our manuscript takes no
account of them. Its language invariably is ‘post in-
troitum chori, ‘finzta processione’ or ' peracta processione.’
It picks up the processions at their concluding stage.
It has neither of the litanies, no service ‘ad fontes, no
* Exultet, no ‘Salve festa dies’; and it gives very few
antiphons in full.
In fact it presupposes the existence of an antiphoner,
and also (as it seems to me) of an ordinary processional,
and undertakes merely to supplement those service-books.
It is a book, in the first place, to be taken up or used
post tntroitum chori, when the chief part of the procession
is ended. At the same time it supplies directions for
certain ceremonies which were to be performed at the
altar, or at subordinate altars, or in the parochial or
! A copy of Pynson's Processionale 1502 is in the Library of St John's
College, Oxford. It is a few years earlier than the edition used by Dr
Henderson.
* HENRY BRADSHAW made an interesting observation that ‘‘ the Morning
and Evening Anthems in our ‘ Prayer-Book’ do not correspond to one
another so closely as might at first sight appear to be the case. The Morning
Anthem comes immediately before the Litany, which precedes the Com-
munion Service, and corresponds to the Processional Anthem or Respond
sung at the churchyard procession before Mass. The Evening Anthem, on
the other hand, follows the third Collect, and corresponds to the Processional
Anthem or Respond sung ‘esndo e? redeundo, in going to, and returning
from, some subordinate altar in the church at the close of Vespers.” Memoir
of H. Braishaw, by G. W. Prothero, Appendix I. p. 424.
INTRODUCTION. xix
monastic churches of the city; and these ceremonies or
processions are for the most part different from, or ad-
ditional to, what we find in the ordinary books.
If I might hazard a conjecture, I should say, that the
MS. was originally composed about the time of Bp Aiscough
for the use of one of the Senior Canons, the Precentor, or
other principalis persona, who might from time to time be
called upon to execute the principal part of the service in
absence of the Bishop and the Dean.
The special interest of the manuscript lies in its con-
taining rites peculiar to the Cathedral Church of Salisbury
itself. Such is the form for the Bidding of the Bedes which
is here found in three editions (so to call them), the first as
written about 1440, the second revised up to date about
1485—90, and the third written out again in the time of
Philip and Mary, when the old forms, much corrected and
augmented in the margins, had become tiresome to read.
Such likewise is the publication of the Relicks by which
Salisbury Cathedral was at once privileged and rendered
famous. Such again is the order for visiting and washing
the altars, which has a local colour quite distinct from the
common rule printed for parish churches. The former
gives us some information about the internal topography
of the Cathedral, which so far as I am aware has been
generally overlooked’. The Maundy po£ws caritatis is
dismissed in other books in a single line; but here the
curious custom is fully described. The latter part of the
volume contains particulars about processions of respect
(causa veneracionis?), and also forms and oaths for use at
enthronizations, installations, and admissions of members of
the Chapter in the Cathedral Choir or Chapter House. It
is no doubt mainly to the existence of these precedents,
which were of practical value, that the manuscript owes its
! A plan or ichnography of Salisbury Cathedral has been printed more
than once in past years, but with certain blank spaces which the rubrics of
this Ms. would help to fill. I have attempted to give a fuller diagram (at p. 73)
in accordance with the lists of altars &c. which I have given at pp. 213,
214—216.
3 Something of the kind is given (but of necessity in a meagre form for
parish churches) in the printed Processionale, p. 169.
XX INTRODUCTION.
survival through the period when ‘monuments of super-
stition’ were destroyed in a wholesale manner.
On the other hand the fear of superstition, or some
other cause, has deprived the MS. of several pages of the
proprium de tempore, which have been torn away and lost.
Among other things the services for the Chorister Bishop,
or Episcopus Puerorum, and the Reconciliation of the
Penitents have been abstracted, and I have had recourse to
other MSS. and to the printed service books, to supply the
gap (pp. 49—64, 69, 70). The reader will observe that I
have not been content to attempt to imitate the brevity of
the MS. in its more meagre passages, but I have thought it
better on the whole to be somewhat liberal in my extracts,
as the original sometimes is.
The manuscript contains some entries and additions
with reference to proceedings of the Dean and Chapter.
These were made at various dates up to the time of Queen
Elizabeth, and there are two or three notes in a seventeenth
century hand.
The reader will notice at once the series of thirteen
rude woodcuts on pp. 18, 49, 63, &c. They do not occur
in the MS. itself, but appear in several printed editions of
the Sarum Processtonale from 1502 to 1530, and a second
type from 1519 to 1558. The colophon of the Antwerp
edition of 1523, printed by F. Byrckman, for Chr. Endovi-
ensis, thus refers to the woodcuts; “ Processionale, cum
bonis notulis et bonis ligaturis: atque cum stationibus
picturatis infra appositis" And in the book itself the
reference ‘vt patet in pictura, vel in statione que sequitur’
occurs in our extract on p. 9o. (See also pp. 84, 87.)
Dr W. G. Henderson, the Dean of Carlisle, to whom
liturgical students are so deeply indebted, printed copies of
these diagrams in 1882, in his privately printed text of the
Sarum Processtonale of 1508, and, his book being now rather
scarce, he very kindly allowed us the use of his woodcut-
blocks. I have revised them by the woodcuts in the
processionals of 1502, 1519, &c., pointing out the principal
deviations of the second type from the earlier one, and I
have added the arabic numerals in each diagram and the
key subjoined to each of them, so that they will, I hope, be
INTRODUCTION. xxi
easily intelligible. They were not, of course, intended to
be in any sense finished drawings, but rough charts to
indicate the relative positions of the various ministers and
personages in a procession or a station. Thus a verge or
baton (on p. 49) shows the sacrist or verger leading the
procession and turning off to the left hand, a water-bucket
and 'strinkell' shows that the aguacbajulus, or boy with
holy-water, follows him, three crosses indicate the positions
of three crucifers, and the shaven crowns tell that they are
acolites. The other shavelings are subdeacon, deacon, and
priest, the last being distinguished by the indication of a
cope’; and so forth. The fire (p. 82) and the triple taper,
or Aasta, on pp. 82, 84 will be noticed ; so will the tau-shaped
staves of the rectores chori on p. 90, the conventional amices
on p. 96, /eo and draco on p. 93, the palms and the other
boughs on p. 67, and the bundles of tapers on p. 99.
The Kalendar prefixed to the volume is of the ordinary
Sarum character; but the addition of ‘nova festa, in a
slightly different hand, is noteworthy.
The entry of the Dedicacto Ecclesie Cathedralis Sarum
on the last day of September is, I believe, almost unique’.
Having been sadly smudged at some time, probably when
K. Henry VIII. in 1536 (anticipating in some measure the
policy of Napoleon) ordered that the feasts should be kept
upon a Sunday throughout the realm, this entry has long
been forgotten".
1 The clearest set of woodcuts (twelve in number) is found in the editions
of 1502, 1508, 1528 (Ruremund), and these we have copied in twelve instances,
merely indicating the principal variations of tbe later set by dotted lines or the
like. We give one specimen of the other set of thirteen (which occurs in 1519,
1523, 1525, 1530, N. Prevost, 1531, 1544, 1545, and 1558) at the Service for
Christmas Day, p. 49, which had no prototype in the earlier set. The later
set, though generally indistinct in execution, has shown more care taken in
depicting the copes of the priests and rulers of the choir. Regnault's edition
of 1530 contains 13 diagrams, but these are rather more elaborate than those of
the later set. The editions of 1517, 1554—57 contain no diagrams.
2 [t is found here, so far as I can learn at present, in the Syon Ms. Marés-
logium (Latin), and in Ri. Whytford's English compilation ‘the Martiloge,
p. 154 (ed. Dewick and Procter).
3 The entry of the Feast of the Dedication was discovered by the Rev.
S. M. Lakin, M.A., Librarian of the Cathedral, and was deciphered by him
with the help of my brother, the Bishop of Salisbury. When the sun is
shining all the letters come out plainly in the original Ms.
xxii INTRODUCTION.
A Suffrage in honour of St Osmund has been added at
the foot of one of the leaves (28°) circ. 1465.
The original part of the MS. certainly cannot be earlier
than 1434— 5, the date of the special ‘ Form of the Greater
Cursing’ then provided for Cathedrals in a Convocation of
the clergy (p. 44, fo. 19°); and reference is made near the end
(p. 113, fo. 39°, 40°) to the Statutum super Thesauro of 1440
as ‘de novo editum. On the other hand, it was written
earlier than 1471, as the obit of Henry VI. is an insertion
a little later than the original drafting, and for a similar
reason I should place it after the death of Bishop Chandler,
but before the murder of Bishop Aiscough, 29 June 1450.
Thus we may conclude that the book was written about
I441— 50.
After the Kalendar', the book opens with a set of four
liturgical Gospels. These are, in the Sarum use, the
lections proper, (1) for the Mass Rorate (of the Blessed
Virgin) and likewise for Lady Day, (2) for Epiphany,
(3) for Ascension Day, and (4) for the third Mass on
Christmas Day.
The Salisbury Custom-Book (cap. 35) prescribed that
the Bishop (if present) should be the celebrant at the last-
named mass, and that the Gospel should be read by the
first canon on the roll (smatricula). The like would happen
for the Gospel on Ascension Day (cap. 36) when the roll
was begun de novo, and on the other feasts the Gospel was
to be read by a Canon in the order of the roll (2272.).
The Christmas Gospel (‘/ principio’), as is well known,
was said on other days at the end of mass, and had, I
believe, an indulgence attached to its use. As the other
select gospels find a place also in some of the 77orae (see
below, p. 17 2.) they may have had a devout, if not a
superstitious value attached to them.
A list of prebendal Psalms prefixed to the volume, and
printed at p. 129 below, has suggested to me that I should
include in this volume some lists of prebends in the order
! A second kalendar, containing an Obit-list, will be found at pp. 331—242.

of places in the Chapter House (pp. 137, 269) and of Stalls
in Choir (pp. 269—73). I have also reprinted (in a fuller
form than that in which recent editors of services from the
Sarum Manuale have given it), the general sentence of
excommunication.
A few other miscellanea from the Episcopal and
Capitular Records have been added. As will be seen by
reference to our Table of Contents, these relate to In-
dulgences, the Cathedral Confraternity, Bp Richard Beau-
champ's Visitation in 1475, Inventories of Jewels, Vestments
and Ornaments at Salisbury from 1536 to 1222, back to
Old Sarum in 1214 and rogo, the Chantries, and the Obit
Kalendar, and the sites of Chapels, Altars, &c. in Salisbury
Cathedral Church. To this last-named topic I have de-
voted my attention for several years, and, with the help of
information contributed by Mr A. R. Malden, I had proposed
to print a dissertation on the subject with a set of illustrative
notes. Owing to some carelessness on my part my notes
were printed from an old draught and not from a fuller
collection which I had made, and, though errors were
corrected in the press, it was not until the sheets had gone
too far that I observed that many notes which I had
intended to include were missing.
The consequence is that I must ask the reader's pardon
for giving him, besides the preliminary dissertation on the
Cathedral topography (pp. 187—205) and its supplement
(pp. 217—223) on rival theories, a double set of illustrative
notes, on pp. 206—216, and pp. 277—307, respectively.
The Statute on Vicars Choral (1472), not included in
the collection of Statuta edited by Dayman and Jones in
1883, and the documents on the Services of St Gabriel
(1451) and St Raphael (1456), with the Treasurer's com- -
plaint in 1452 on the burthen imposed on him by the
institution of additional festivals, will I hope prove ac-
ceptable.
The documents relating to the services by Bp Lacy of
Exeter in honour of the Archangels, give us some insight
into the method by which such offices were introduced.
For these, as well as for the list of Chorister Bishops,
and for many of the notes relating to the sites of the altars
XXIV INTRODUCTION.
and other subjects, we have to thank Mr Arthur Russell
Malden, who is doing much to make available to students
the muniments at Salisbury, which are partly in his custody.
Dr J. Wickham Legg has looked over several of the
sheets, and has kindly made a few suggestions, but is in no
way responsible for the details or arrangement of the book.
For frequent help in matters relating to the topography
of Salisbury Cathedral I have to thank Mr George Free-
mantle, Verger, Church Sexton and Clerk of Salisbury,
who combines with the enthusiasm of his predecessor
William Dodsworth’, the minute accuracy, the local know-
ledge, and the refined and ready courtesy of my old friend
Mr Logsdail of Lincoln.
To complete the history of Salisbury Commemorations
of Benefactors (see pp. 24—31, 183—4, 229—42) I have
included the form which is at the present time in use
(pp. 308, 309—18).
For this, and for some other prayers in English, I have
to thank my Brother, the Bishop of Salisbury ; and I wish
also to record my grateful acknowledgements to the late
Dean of Salisbury, the Very Reverend George David
Boyle, M.A, a kind friend and genial scholar, who was
ready in every manner possible to forward the present
work.
The Arms of the Church of Salisbury, shown upon the
binding of this book, are from the design of Mr J. Arthur
Reeve, 1886.
CHR. WORDSWORTH.
1 William Dodsworth, born in Salisbury in 1760, died 7 Aug. 1826, and
was buried in the Cloister, just outside the entrance to the Chapter House,
according to his own desire, near Mr Francis Price the architect, who had died
in 1753. Dodsworth was for upwards of forty-nine years Verger of Salisbury
Cathedral Church. In 1814 An Historical Account of the Episcopal See and
Cathedral Church of Sarum or Salisbury was published by subscription, with
engravings, pp. xx + 240, imperial quarto, really written by Mr Hatcher, but in
the latter portion from information supplied by Dodsworth, bears the latter's
name. He had written a smaller guide to the Cathedral Church, which went
through six editions between 1792 and 1800.

PREFACE.
VER since the establishment of the new Cathedral Church
at Salisbury in the days of Abp Langton and K. Henry III,
if not from the earlier times of Lanfranc and the Norman
Conqueror, the “Use oF Sarum” has maintained a certain
prestige in England, and even in the Church beyond the seas.
In 1228 Pope Gregory IX. had heard of the fame of Osmund’s
Institutions', and it was averred by a Roman Catholic writer
in 1608, that “in ancient tymes the Catholicke Bishops of
Salisbury obtayned the Titles of the Fofe’s Maister of the
Cerimonyes, and had their places alwayes assigned them in
the Pope’s Chappell and other solemnityes at Rome, according
to that dignity’.” And in the Provincial Episcopal College of
the Abp of Canterbury, when the Primate of All England is
solemnly celebrating Divine Service, the Bishop of Salisbury,
according to antient custom, rules the choir as Precentor*. The
Church of Salisbury in successive generations maintained its
preeminence :—‘ insignis ac preclara, ‘insignis ac inter occtduos
nominatissima, were epithets constantly applied to it by the
printers of its Service-books ; and recourse was had to members
of the Chapter, as experts in the Rubrick and the Ordinal, by
those who were in doubt and perplexity thereabout, in the
thirteenth and following centuries. In 1256 Bp Giles de Bridport
had maintained* that ‘among the churches of the whole world,
the Church of Sarum hath shone resplendent, like the sun in
his full orb, in respect of its divine service, and its ministers’;
and after the introduction of printing (to judge from the catalogue
of the British Museum) few Churches, if any, had a larger number
of editions of their service-books printed between the years 1475
and 1558, than this unpretentious city in Wiltshire.
That an interest in “Sarum Use” has not altogether died
out in modern times, we may infer from the fact that so many

of its service-books have been reprinted for archeologists and
liturgical students. In 1844-46 Mr Maskell edited portions of
the Missal (twice) and of the Manual (and some Pontificals), as
well as the Horae beatae Mariae Virginis. This last was again
edited by him in 1882, and by Mr Littlehales (from another ms.)
in 189r. In 1851 some portions of the Hymni cum notis were
produced. The Aissa/e was issued complete in 1861-83. The
Manuale (by collation with that of York), in 1875. The Zreu-
artum, in 1879-86. The Processionale of 1508, in 1882. The
Graduate, from a manuscript, in 1892-4 (the rubrick of the printed
editions having been collated some years earlier in the edition of
the Missal). The Afartiloge followed in 1893, and now the Diérec-
torium, or Pye, is approaching its completion, in two volumes.
The ‘ Antiphonale, ‘ Legenda’ and ‘ Psalterium,’ the ‘ Diurnale’
and * Expositio Hymnorum et Sequentiarum’ still await reprinting.
And a substantive edition of the ‘Sarum Manual’ would still be
acceptable to students. But none of these (unless it be the
Antiphoner, from the musician’s point of view, and the ‘ Expositio’
from that of the schoolmaster) can be said to be entirely un-
represented in a modern form. ‘The Consuetudinarium has been
printed in 1845-47, in 1853, in 1883 and in 1898. The Custo-
marium also, in 1898; the ‘Tracts of Clement Maydestone’
called * Defensortum Directorit’ and * Crede Michi, which illustrate
and comment upon * Sarum Use," were reprinted in 1894. "The
Ordtnale is about to issue from the Cambridge University Press,
having never been in print before. A *'Z*oparium? has been
printed in 1894; but such books can hardly be included among
those of Sarum, as they were, as a species, nearly extinct when
that * Use" became developed. The present century may
not improbably see a Collectarius and Capitularius in print, the
Antiphoner and Tonal, and possibly some of the other service-
books which we have already mentioned. The Liber Festivalis,
as a book of sermons, would complete the set.
But while there has been a fair supply of books of Sarum
Use, there has hardly been one among them which belonged
in any special way to the Mother-Church of Salisbury itself.
It is this fact, that our manuscript Processional was used
in the Cathedral Church, and had been written for it specially,
that gives it a special claim on our attention, and has called
for its appearance in a printed form.

§ A few leaves here have been torn out of the Salisbury Ms. 148, probably
in order to cancel the ceremonies of the Chorister Boy Bishop. We have
attempted to supply what is missing (possibly at greater length than in the
original Ms. from other sources, viz. the printed Processionale, the Ms. Sarum
Breviary in the Chapter Library at Salisbury, no. 153, and the printed
Breviarium ad vsum Sarum).

! The late Rev. J. R. Lunn was of opinion that St Alban was put into the
Anglican Kalendar at June 17th, by a mis-reading of the numeral ‘xxii’ as
‘xvii.’ He is however found placed on the 17th in the Sarum Afissal/e of 1508,
in a Bangor Ms., in the Preces Privatae of 1568, and in a Psalter of 1617, as
well as in the Prayer Book Kalendar of 1663.

INTRODUCTION.
THE Sarum Processionale, still preserved among the
treasures of Salisbury Cathedral (MS. 148 in the Chapter
Library), consists of 50 leaves of vellum, numbered recently
with pencil, and bound (perhaps in the 17th century) in a
smooth vellum cover.
Two fly-leaves of vellum at the beginning contain no
old writing, but on the rough leaf which once was attached
to the boards some old hand has written ' Cányngs, to try
a pen, and on the verso are two clauses for insertion at the
Bidding the Bedes (which see below, p. 24).
Leaf 1 contains the list of prebends, with the daily
psalms attached. Leaf 2 is ruled, possibly for an orna-
mental title, but these leaves are not part of the original
book. Leaves 3—8 contain the kalendar in blue, red, and
black. The text of the processional begins on leaf ro,
line 3 (after the select gospels, which run from leaf 9 to the
top of 10).
In its original state it consisted of six eight-leaf quires,
or 48 leaves of vellum. Of these the whole of the third
quire is lost (fo. 17—24), as well as the first and last
leaves of the fourth quire (fo. 25, 32). Thus the book now
wants all from the second week in Advent to the middle
of the Ash Wednesday services, and again part of the
Maundy Thursday service, The original book was written
about 1445. In my reprint, the missing portion has been
to a considerable extent supplied from other sources.
On the other hand the original manuscript at Salisbury
has certain insertions or additions, viz.: four leaves at the
beginning, on the third of which (now numbered 1*) is a
list of psalms appropriated to the Prebends: two leaves
(now numbered 13, 14) inserted in the second quire as a
revised list of names for commemoration at Bidding the
Bedes : a four-leaf quire near the end of the book to hold
xviil INTRODUCTION.
documents relating to the Dean and Chapter (now 43—46):
and four (formerly six) other leaves (now 47— 50), which
last quire may have formed a blank sheet at the end of
the original volume, and now has only one or two docu-
ments entered near the end.
Although the Salisbury MS. has many passages in
common with the ordinary ‘ Processtonale ad usum Insignis
et preclare ecclesie Sarum’ as it was printed by Pynson, in
1502!, and by others, and reprinted under Dr Henderson's
editorship in 1882, yet it is in reality a different book in
some noticeable particulars.
The printed Processtonale is much concerned with
Antiphonae ‘ad processionem, and with those ' zz zntrottu
chort’ and ‘in redeundo": but our manuscript takes no
account of them. Its language invariably is ‘fost in-
troitum chori," ‘fzfa processione’ or * feracta processione."
It picks up the processions at their concluding stage.
It has neither of the litanies, no service ‘ad fontes, no
* Exultet, no ‘Salve festa dies’; and it gives very few
antiphons in full.
In fact it presupposes the existence of an antiphoner,
and also (as it seems to me) of an ordinary processional,
and undertakes merely to supplement those service-books.
It is a book, in the first place, to be taken up or used
post introitum chori, when the chief part of the procession
is ended. At the same time it supplies directions for
certain ceremonies which were to be performed at the
altar, or at subordinate altars, or in the parochial or
! A copy of Pynson’s Processionale 1502 is in the Library of St John's
College, Oxford. It is a few years earlier than the edition used by Dr
Henderson.
* HENRY BRADSHAW made an interesting observation that * the Morning
and Evening Anthems in our 'Prayer-Book' do not correspond to one
another so closely as might at first sight appear to be the case. The Morning
Anthem comes immediately before the Litany, which precedes the Com-
munion Service, and corresponds to the Processional Anthem or Respond
sung at the churchyard procession before Mass. The Evening Anthem, on
the other hand, follows the third Collect, and corresponds to the Processional
Anthem or Respond sung 'ewmdo ef redeundo, in going to, and returning
from, some subordinate altar in the church at the close of Vespers.” — Memoir
of H. Bradshaw, by G. W. Prothero, Appendix I. p. 424.

INTRODUCTION. xix
monastic churches of the city; and these ceremonies or
processions are for the most part different from, or ad-
ditional to, what we find in the ordinary books.
If I might hazard a conjecture, I should say, that the
MS. was originally composed about the time of Bp Aiscough
for the use of one of the Senior Canons, the Precentor, or
other principalis persona, who might from time to time be
called upon to execute the principal part of the service in
absence of the Bishop and the Dean.
The special interest of the manuscript lies in its con-
taining rites peculiar to the Cathedral Church of Salisbury
itself. Such is the form for the Bidding of the Bedes which
is here found in three editions (so to call them), the first as
written about 1440, the second revised up to date about
1485—90, and the third written out again in the time of
Philip and Mary, when the old forms, much corrected and
augmented in the margins, had become tiresome to read.
Such likewise is the publication of the Relicks by which
Salisbury Cathedral was at once privileged and rendered
famous. Such again is the order for visiting and washing
the altars, which has a local colour quite distinct from the
common rule printed for parish churches. The former
gives us some information about the internal topography
of the Cathedral, which so far as I am aware has been
generally overlooked’. The Maundy potus caritatis is
dismissed in other books in a single line; but here the
curious custom is fully described. The latter part of the
volume contains particulars about processions of respect
(causa venueracionis?) and also forms and oaths for use at
enthronizations, installations, and admissions of members of
the Chapter in the Cathedral Choir or Chapter House. It
is no doubt mainly to the existence of these precedents,
which were of practical value, that the manuscript owes its
! A plan or ichnography of Salisbury Cathedral has been printed more
than once in past years, but with certain blank spaces which the rubrics of
this Ms. would help to fill. I have attempted to give a fuller diagram (at p. 73)
in accordance with the lists of altars &c. which I have given at pp. 213,
214—216.
2 Something of the kind is given (but of necessity in a meagre form for
parish churches) in the printed Processionale, p. 169.
XX INTRODUCTION.
survival through the period when * monuments of super-
stition’ were destroyed in a wholesale manner.
On the other hand the fear of superstition, or some
other cause, has deprived the MS. of several pages of the
proprium de tempore, which have been torn away and lost.
Among other things the services for the Chorister Bishop,
or Episcopus Puerorum, and the Reconciliation of the
Penitents have been abstracted, and I have had recourse to
other MSS. and to the printed service books, to supply the
gap (pp. 49—64, 69, 70). The reader will observe that I
have not been content to attempt to imitate the brevity of
the MS. in its more meagre passages, but I have thought it
better on the whole to be somewhat liberal in my extracts,
as the original sometimes is.
The manuscript contains some entries and additions
with reference to proceedings of the Dean and Chapter.
These were made at various dates up to the time of Queen
Elizabeth, and there are two or three notes in a seventeenth
century hand.
The reader will notice at once the series of thirteen
rude woodcuts on pp. 18, 49, 63, &c. They do not occur
in the MS. itself, but appear in several printed editions of
the Sarum Processtonale from 1502 to 1530, and a second
type from 1519 to 1558. The colophon of the Antwerp
edition of 1523, printed by F. Byrckman, for Chr. Endovi-
ensis, thus refers to the woodcuts; “ Processionale, cum
bonis notulis et bonis ligaturis: atque cum stationibus
picturatis infra appositis" And in the book itself the
reference ‘vt patet in pictura, vel in statione que sequitur’
occurs in our extract on p. 90. (See also pp. 84, 87.)
Dr W. G. Henderson, the Dean of Carlisle, to whom
liturgical students are so deeply indebted, printed copies of
these diagrams in 1882, in his privately printed text of the
Sarum Processtonale of 1508, and, his book being now rather
scarce, he very kindly allowed us the use of his woodcut-
blocks. I have revised them by the woodcuts in the
processionals of 1502, 1519, &c., pointing out the principal
deviations of the second type from the earlier one, and I
have added the arabic numerals in each diagram and the
key subjoined to each of them, so that they will, I hope, be
INTRODUCTION. xxi
easily intelligible. They were not, of course, intended to
be in any sense finished drawings, but rough charts to
indicate the relative positions of the various ministers and
personages in a procession or a station. Thus a verge or
baton (on p. 49) shows the sacrist or verger leading the
procession and turning off to the left hand, a water-bucket
and 'strinkell' shows that the aguaebajulus, or boy with
holy-water, follows him, three crosses indicate the positions
of three crucifers, and the shaven crowns tell that they are
acolites. The other shavelings are subdeacon, deacon, and
priest, the last being distinguished by the indication of a
cope’; and so forth. The fire (p. 82) and the triple taper,
or Aasta, on pp. 82, 84 will be noticed ; so will the tau-shaped
staves of the rectores chori on p. 90, the conventional amices
on p. 96, /eo and draco on p. 93, the palms and the other
boughs on p. 67, and the bundles of tapers on p. 99.
The Kalendar prefixed to the volume is of the ordinary
Sarum character; but the addition of ‘ova festa, in a
slightly different hand, is noteworthy.
The entry of the Dedicacto Ecclesie Cathedralis Sarum
on the last day of September is, I believe, almost unique*.
Having been sadly smudged at some time, probably when
K. Henry VIII. in 1536 (anticipating in some measure the
policy of Napoleon) ordered that the feasts should be kept
upon a Sunday throughout the realm, this entry has long
been forgotten".
1 The clearest set of woodcuts (twelve in number) is found in the editions
of 1502, 1508, 1528 (Ruremund), and these we have copied in twelve instances,
merely indicating the principal variations of the later set by dotted lines or the
like. We give one specimen of the other set of thirteen (which occurs in 1519,
1523, 1525, 1530, N. Prevost, 1531, 1544, 1545, and 1558) at the Service for
Christmas Day, p. 49, which had no prototype in the earlier set. The later
set, though generally indistinct in execution, has shown more care taken in
depicting the copes of the priests and rulers of the choir. Regnault's edition
of 1530 contains 13 diagrams, but these are rather more elaborate than those of
the later set. The editions of 1517, 1554—57 contain no diagrams.
2 [t is found here, so far as I can learn at present, in the Syon Ms. /farti:-
logium (Latin), and in Ri. Whytford's English compilation *'/Ae Martiloge,
p. 154 (ed. Dewick and Procter).
3 The entry of the Feast of the Dedication was discovered by the Rev.
S. M. Lakin, M.A., Librarian of the Cathedral, and was deciphered by him
with the help of my brother, the Bishop of Salisbury. When the sun is
shining all the letters come out plainly in the original Ms.
xxii INTRODUCTION.
A Suffrage in honour of St Osmund has been added at
the foot of one of the leaves (28^) circ. 1465.
The original part of the MS. certainly cannot be earlier
than 1434— 5, the date of the special ‘ Form of the Greater
Cursing’ then provided for Cathedrals in a Convocation of
the clergy (p. 44, fo. 19"); and reference is made near the end
(p. 113, fo. 39°, 40°) to the Statutum super Thesauro of 1440
as ‘de novo editum. On the other hand, it was written
earlier than 1471, as the obit of Henry VI. is an insertion
a little later than the original drafting, and for a similar
reason I should place it after the death of Bishop Chandler,
but before the murder of Bishop Aiscough, 29 June 1450.
Thus we may conclude that the book was written about
1441— 50.
After the Kalendar', the book opens with a set of four
liturgical Gospels. These are, in the Sarum use, the
lections proper, (1) for the Mass Rorate (of the Blessed
Virgin) and likewise for Lady Day, (2) for Epiphany,
(3) for Ascension Day, and (4) for the third Mass on
Christmas Day.
The Salisbury Custom-Book (cap. 35) prescribed that
the Bishop (if present) should be the celebrant at the last-
named mass, and that the Gospel should be read by the
first canon on the roll (satricula). The like would happen
for the Gospel on Ascension Day (cap. 36) when the roll
was begun de nove, and on the other feasts the Gospel was
to be read by a Canon in the order of the roll (22:2.).
The Christmas Gospel ('7» principio’), as is well known,
was said on other days at the end of mass, and had, I
believe, an indulgence attached to its use. As the other
select gospels find a place also in some of the Horae (see
below, p. 17 7.) they may have had a devout, if not a
superstitious value attached to them.
A list of prebendal Psalms prefixed to the volume, and
printed at p. 129 below, has suggested to me that I should
include in this volume some lists of prebends in the order
1 A second kalendar, containing an Obit-list, will be found at pp. 331—242.
INTRODUCTION. xxiii
of places in the Chapter House (pp. 137, 269) and of Stalls
in Choir (pp. 269—73). I have also reprinted (in a fuller
form than that in which recent editors of services from the
Sarum Manuale have given it) the general sentence of
excommunication.
A few other miscellanea from the Episcopal and
Capitular Records have been added. As will be seen by
reference to our Table of Contents, these relate to In-
dulgences, the Cathedral Confraternity, Bp Richard Beau-
champ's Visitation in 1475, Inventories of Jewels, Vestments
and Ornaments at Salisbury from 1536 to 1222, back to
Old Sarum in 1214 and 1090, the Chantries, and the Obit
Kalendar, and the sites of Chapels, Altars, &c. in Salisbury
Cathedral Church. To this last-named topic I have de-
voted my attention for several years, and, with the help of
information contributed by Mr A. R. Malden, I had proposed
to print a dissertation on the subject with a set of illustrative
notes. Owing to some carelessness on my part my notes
were printed from an old draught and not from a fuller
collection which I had made, and, though errors were
corrected in the press, it was not until the sheets had gone
too far that I observed that many notes which I had
intended to include were missing.
The consequence is that I must ask the reader’s pardon
for giving him, besides the preliminary dissertation on the
Cathedral topography (pp. 187—205) and its supplement
(pp. 217—223) on rival theories, a double set of illustrative
notes, on pp. 206—216, and pp. 277—307, respectively.
The Statute on Vicars Choral (1472), not included in
the collection of Statuta edited by Dayman and Jones in
1883, and the documents on the Services of St Gabriel
(1451) and St Raphael (1456), with the Treasurer's com- -
plaint in 1452 on the burthen imposed on him by the
institution of additional festivals, will I hope prove ac-
ceptable.
The documents relating to the services by Bp Lacy of
Exeter in honour of the Archangels, give us some insight
into the method by which such offices were introduced.
For these, as well as for the list of Chorister Bishops,
and for many of the notes relating to the sites of the altars
XXiv INTRODUCTION.
and other subjects, we have to thank Mr Arthur Russell
Malden, who is doing much to make available to students
the muniments at Salisbury, which are partly in his custody.
Dr J. Wickham Legg has looked over several of the
sheets, and has kindly made a few suggestions, but is in no
way responsible for the details or arrangement of the book.
For frequent help in matters relating to the topography
of Salisbury Cathedral I have to thank Mr George Free-
mantle, Verger, Church Sexton and Clerk of Salisbury,
who combines with the enthusiasm of his predecessor
William Dodsworth’, the minute accuracy, the local know-
ledge, and the refined and ready courtesy. of my old friend
Mr Logsdail of Lincoln.
To complete the history of Salisbury Commemorations
of Benefactors (see pp. 24—31, 183—4, 229—42) I have
included the form which is at the present time in use
(pp. 308, 309—18).
For this, and for some other prayers in English, I have
to thank my Brother, the Bishop of Salisbury ; and I wish
also to record my grateful acknowledgements to the late
Dean of Salisbury, the Very Reverend George David
Boyle, M.A., a kind friend and genial scholar, who was
ready in every manner possible to forward the present
work.
The Arms of the Church of Salisbury, shown upon the
binding of this book, are from the design of Mr J. Arthur
Reeve, 1886.
CHR. WORDSWORTH.
! William Dodsworth, born in Salisbury in 1760, died 7 Aug. 1826, and
was buried in the Cloister, just outside the entrance to the Chapter House,
according to his own desire, near Mr Francis Price the architect, who had died
in 1753. Dodsworth was for upwards of forty-nine years Verger of Salisbury
Cathedral Church. In 1814 An Historical Account of the Episcopal See and
Cathedral Church of Sarum or Salisbury was published by subscription, with
engravings, pp. xx + 240, imperial quarto, really written by Mr Hatcher, but in
the latter portion from information supplied by Dodsworth, bears the latter’s
name. He had written a smaller guide to the Cathedral Church, which went
through six editions between 1792 and 1800.

His festival was observed in Lincolnshire as early as 1377, but it was not till 1416
that Abp Chicheley ordered its celebration (with his Translation, 25 Oct.) in memory
of the victory of Agincourt. Wilkins’ Comci/ia iii. 379.

confer with his suffragans. Wilkins’ Conc. iii. 613.

! The four gospel lections here given are assigned in the Sarum
Missal as follows :—
Missus est Gabriel is the gospel of the Mass Aorafe appointed for
Lady Day, and likewise for the Daily Mass of the Blessed Virgin in
her Chapel, and in the Quire when there is High Service (‘plenum
seruttium’), from Advent to Christmas, except on the feast of the
Conception of B.V.M. Missale Sarum, ed. F. H. Dickinson, pp. 729,
766*.
Cum natus is the gospel for Mass of the Epiphany Ecce advenit,
Missale Sar. p. 86. This is used at Rome as the final gospel at the
3rd Mass of Christmas Day, so as to avoid reciting ‘In principio’
a second time on that occasion. See Roman Missal, Rubric. General.
tit. xii. 82. The rubric directs further that when a Sunday's proper
Mass has to give way to the Mass of a festival, the gospel proper for
the Sunday is to be used as the final gospel at Mass. Another gospel
Cum afbropinguasset S. Matt. xxi. from the Blessing of Palms is
said in certain votive Masses.
Recumbentibus is the gospel for Ascension Day in the Mass Viri
galilaei, ibid. pp. 414—5.
In principio is the gospel for the third Mass on Christmas Day
Puer natus (ibid. pp. 61—2). 1t is also commonly said at Salisbury
after other Masses in returning from the altar (p. 629). As the Sarum
Customs-Book, cap. 35, prescribes that on Christmas Day a Canon
shall be ‘tabled’ ad Evangelium, we may perhaps conjecture that this
volume was intended to be kept as a text of the Gospels for the use of
the Canon ministering on these great festivals. These ‘Gospels of
the Four Evangelists’ are prefixed likewise to Hore B. Marie V. of
Sarum Use, 4to. Paris, 1535—36; and I find them at the end of the
Coutances (and York) Ms. Hora in Samuel Hey's library, which he
bequeathed to his successors, vicars of Steeple-Ashton, near Trow-
bridge. On /n principio, see Mr Cuthbert Atchley's paper on Second
Gospel at Mass, in Zransactions of St Pauls Ecclestological Soctety,
vol. IV. pp. 161—176.

churche of rome" as the printed processionals have in the latin (which
was to be translated into the vulgar tongue) *Oremus pro ecclesia
Romana, et pro papa, ct archiepiscopis et episcopis”—-for which the
edition of 1544 substitutes *according to the effect *pro ecclesia
Anglicana et pro rege nostro et archiepiscopis." The concluding
letters of “Rome” are just visible.

of Clarence 1461 and died in 1477. William Fitz-Alan earl of Arundel
1437—1487. The name is first written “Clarence” here, and then
* Clarance.”
3 John Talbot, baron Furnival jure uxoris, was created Earl of
Shrewsbury 20 May 1442 and died in 1453. He was also created
Earl of Wexford and Waterford in 1446. (Does verdon here stand
for srarden '?) He was clearly living when this prayer was offered

commanding his clergy to send to him at his house at Ramsbury,
or elsewhere, such relicks as they had, with any ‘wrytings’ relating
to the same, so that he and his ‘advisers, assessores, or Counsail’
might ‘explore and try them what they be,’ and so return such as
they might find genuine, ‘with certayne instruction how they ought
to be used.’ He asserted that in his diocese ‘ydolatrie’ had been
practised to ‘vaine thinges; namely stinking bootes, mucke combes,
ragged rochettes, rotten girdles, pyl’d purses, great bullock horns,

And in smaller writing, with faint ink, is added, possibly earlier
than the preceding note:

Pope Sixtus 1V. in 1472 granted indulgence of 12 years and 12
quadragenas to those who should visit the church on St Osmund's
obit and Translation and should assist in the repairs of the fabric.

NOTES ON RELICKS AT SALISBURY.
[The Treasurer’s Inventory of 1536 mentions in addition
to those noted in the footnotes above (under Pyxides, iii. 6),
‘a pyx of ivory bound with copper, containing the chain
wherwyth St Katharine bound the Devil.’
Also under ‘ctste cum Religuijs; one box containing
relicks of the Eleven Thousand Virgins of Cologne (com-
panions of St Ursula), ‘in four purses with this scripture
“ex dono dai Asserij.””*
The rubrick for the Feast of Relicks, in the month of
July, in the printed Pvrocessionale mentions the public
reading on that festival, probably as it was practised in
parish churches : * /2 Festo Religuiarum :—Ad Processionem
ky. Concede nobis. Y. Adiuuent: v? supra (Require in Festo
Omnium Sanctorum, p. 159).

[The following are some of the Indulgences granted in
connexion with Salisbury Cathedral Church.
cir. 1225 Stephen Langton, Cardinal Abp, grants an in-
dulgence of 30 days to contributors to the
fabric.
cir. 1235 Edmund of Abingdon, Abp, gave the like.
1258 Pope Alexander IV. grants 100 days to
visitors on the Assumption, and 40 on
Candlemas and Nat. B.V.M.
1 ex dono dit Asserz7. There were in 1536 upwards of twelve chests
with relicks, not specified in detail in that 'register, besides those
which we have named in the notes. Under fadernacula cum reliquiis
the Treasurer at that date entered one containing *the breast bone
of St Eugenius; and others,—but whether of one of the martyrs or
of the confessors of that name, he does not say. Asser, the bio-
grapher of K. Alfred, was Bp of Sherborne A.D. 895—910.
The Indulgence of Alexander IV. is printed in Macray's Sarum
Charters, p. 329. Indulgences for Heytesbury granted by Abp Becket
and by Nigel, Bp of Ely cir. 1165, are printed in Osmund Reg. i.
343—-4, also Bp Waltham's indulgence to contributors to St John's
Hospital, Old Sarum, in 1387—8, in Hatcher & Benson, p. 751.

! [n 1434 (12—13 Hen. VI.) H. Chicheley was Abp, and Ro.
Neville Bp of Sarum. This form appears to be based upon the
Constitution of Stephen Langton in the Council of Oxford, A.D. 1222,
nearly coeval with the foundation of Salisbury Cathedral See
Lyndewode Provinciale v. 17. 1, De Sententia Excommunicationis,
p- 345; cf. iàid. part 3, p. 1. See also the Constitution of Abp
Peckham which directs the clergy to declare the sentence to their
parishioners on the Sunday next following the celebration of the
Capitulum Rurale, Provin. v. 17, p. 353. Cf. Constit. Othonis ‘De
Archidiaconis.’ A Constitution of John Stratford, 1342, ibid. p. 354—5
(cf. part 3, p. 43) requires that the sentence should be published on the
1* Sunday in Lent, on Corpus Christi Day, and two other festivals.
Abp Peccham, at Reading, 1279 (p. 355), says, on Sunday after
Michaelmas Day, Midlent Sunday, Trinity Sunday, and Sunday after
St Peter ad Vincula, i.e. ‘ Lammas,’ or August Ist. (Part 3, p. 23.)

Abp Chicheley published the present form in Convocation, 23 Feb.
1434—5, having blamed the clergy for their neglect of the Constitution
of Reading. A version of it is printed from the Eton MS. in the
Appendix to Lyndewode's Provinciale, pp. 73, 74, ed. 1679.

of the Provinciale.
* A handsel-shaft for weighing. Probably the converse of a * make-
weight. Thus the purchaser would carry away short weight on at least
one pound (if the pound was the unit) of the commodity sold to him.
5 [n his Injunctions for Dorset in 1538 Nic. Shaxton Bp of Sarum
prescribed that the clergy should ‘perfitly con without Boke’ the
books of the New Testament in a certain order, “ And that the xxviii.
Chapiter of Deuteronomie be openly red in the Church every Quarter,
in stede of the General Sentence” (art. vii.) printed by Burnet, is.
Ref. Records to Vol. it. Book i111. no. lix. Deut. xxviii. is part of the
same context as the principal part of our ‘commination’ instituted in
1549 (though a chapter later), and Shaxton's injunction may be con-
sidered to be the germ of it. In 1576 Abp Grindal directed that the
Commination should be used quarterly, viz. on a Sunday between
mid-lent and Easter, on the 5th S. after Easter (or else on Rogation
Sunday), on the 3rd or 4th S. in Advent ‘over and besides the accus-
tomed reading thereof upon the first day of Lent.’ Articles for
Province of Canterbury. Cardwell, Doc. Ann. (ed. 2), i. 398.
At a much earlier date Bp Ri. Poore (cir. 1223) had issued his
Constitution (cap. 49) de solemni excommunicactone :—‘ Singulis autem
annis in tribus solempnitatibus maioribus, scilicet in die Natalis,
in die Pentecostes, et in die Assumpcionis beate Marie, solempniter
excommunicandi denunciantur in genere:
* Sorciarij, testes periuri super sacrosancta ewangelia, incendiarij,
raptores publici. maliciose impedientes execucionem racionabilium
testamentorum, et contumaces decimarum detentores, et perturbatores
ecclesie et regni, Sarum Charters (Jones and Macray) 1891, p. 145.
In the Liber Eccl. B. Ternani de Arbuthnott secundum usum
Eccl. S. Andree in Scotia, written in 1491, and edited by Bp Forbes
and his brother in 1864, there is at the beginning (presumably of the
early part of the xvith century) a form of anathema in the Scots
language (see Preface, pp. Ixx., xxi.) which may be compared.

Chorister Bishop:

3 The Boy Bishop was elected at Salisbury upon St Nicholas’ Day
(Dec. 6th) and entered on his duties at first Evensong of Childermas.
See Episcopus Puerorum in Die Innocentium (p. 113), a monograph
by J. Gregory among his Posthumous Tracts, 4to Lond. 1671, pp. 94—
120. He was of Christ Church, Oxon., prebendary of Sarum, 1643— 6.
4 An account of Visitations and gathering of procurations by the
boys at Childermas is given in the Camden Society Miscellany, vol. vit.
5 However on Innocents’ Day 1413 the Boy Bishop at Salisbury
gave a feast, Pountney Register, f. 2. Rich. Jones gives the names of
five Chorister Bishops of the period of our manuscript Procession
Book 1440— $6, viz. John Charling, William Wayte, Thomas Pye,
Robert Bremer, and John Harper. He tells us also that the Canons
made over to them the offerings collected (presumably at mass, and at
the images) at that season, in value varying from 56s. 8d. to 89s. 11d.

bulo’ at Salisbury? I incline to think that it was in the chapel in the
south-east transept nearest to the vestry passage.
The High Altar *of the Assumption of Blessed Mary' perhaps
stood somewhat nearer the west than that now in use: Rich. Jones
says, under the roof-painting of the ‘ Majesty,’ at the intersection of
the eastern transept with the sanctuary or choir. The Orison here is
not the collect of the Mass.of the Assumption, but the Mass Salue.
1 St Osmund was not canonised until A.D. 1456. Probably an
altar was dedicated in his honour in Salisbury cathedral soon after-
wards. Perhaps it was at the side of the sanctuary or presbytery (as
was the case with one of the altars at Lincoln) but I think more
robably in the centre of the Lady Chapel near his tomb. The collect
here given is the form supplied in the Breviary for the Depositio
sancti Osmundi (4th Dec.) iii. p. 23.
2 Perhaps the scribe intended to write * 27? or * E£ bi? The
Altar of St Martin is, as an earlier rubrick (fo. 24^ — p. 64) tells us, on
the north side of the church in Salisbury Cathedral.
The collect * Deus qui conspicis...virtute’ &c. is that for Martinmas

for the last aitar.
1 The Altar of St Katherine was next to that of St Martin in the
north-east transept.
3 The Altar of St Peter and the Apostles was to the north of the
Lady Chapel where the Gorges monument stands. The words
‘apostolorum’ and ‘beati apostoli tui’ show marks of alteration
(possibly from ‘S. £e/ri? and * beatus apostolus?) The Collect here is
not that for St Peter and St Paul or the Commune Apostolorum, but is
founded on that for St Andrew's Day.

1 The altar of St Stephen and the Martyrs was to the south of the
Lady Chapel, where the Somerset monument stands.
3 The altar of St Mary Magdalen was in the northern part of the
south-east transept.
3 The altar of All Saints appears to have been in the Lady Chapel.
The collect ‘Infirmitatem’ (apparently) is not in the Missal, but it is
found in the Sarum Breviary fasc. it. p. 93, for the ferial suffrage of
All Hallows at Mattins. It is possible that this was nearer the altar
of the Most Holy Trinity, which originally zacluded the dedication of
All Hallows.

given (which enables one to study the construction), and it is called a
Praefatio. It is there ascribed to Pope Zozimus [A.D. 417—8]. If you
examine the Exw/fe/, you will see it precisely takes the place of the
Secreta with its Oremus prefixed. As in so many relics of old things,
the Invitation is largely expanded (after what is known as the Gallican
—really the older—fashion), instead of being cut down to the single
word Oremus; while the concluding Per omnia secula seculorum,
Amen, leads at once to the Dominus vobiscum and Sursum corda.

The concluding * Amen' is written in ornamental capitals, as ending
this section of the book. A little later, probably after or upon occasion
of St Osmund's translation in 1457, the following addition has been
made in the space at the bottom of the page, but the space around the
blue initial D still wants the red arabesque border with which the
remainder of the book is ornamented. St Osmund's Deposttio is on
4 Dec. His 7ranslatio, 16 July".

! St Osmund died in Dec. 1099, but as we have stated above he
was not canonized until 1456. See above, p. 74, 2. The observance of
the festival of his 7vanslation was under debate in Convocation as late
as 1480 (Wilkins! Concilia, iii. 613), but was no doubt established at
Salisbury itself before that date. Contributions were required for his
shrine in 23 Jan. 1472. Sixtus IV. granted indulgence of 12 years and
I2 quadragenas * visitantibus Eccl. Cath. Sarum et manus adiutrices
ad illius structurarum et edificiorum reparacion! porrigentibus, in obitu
et Translacionis Festivitatibus.’ Msc. e¢ Stat. quoad Sarum, p. 12.
The remains of Bp Osmund were removed from Old Sarum (‘a castro
Sarum usque ad Novam Fabricam ) with those of bishops Roger and
Josceline, on 14 June, 1226, Osmund Reg. ii. p. $5. For some reason
or other, the Feast of his Translation was kept in July. Possibly this
was the date when the new shrine was ready. Mr A. R. Malden is
engaged in editing the accounts of the process of St Osmund's
Canonization. He tells me that the Bull for St Osmund's Canoniza-
tion was dated 1 Jan. 1456-7, and that it named 4 Dec. for the feast.
The Translation was made in 1457, before any celebration of the
Defositio had taken place. The shrine must have been got ready to
receive the coffin in 1457, but it was left only half finished as late as
15 Feb. 1472-3.

1 more cauonicalt induto : i.e., with surplice and the almuce of grey
fur lined with miniver, and a long black choir cope.
In choir the Vicars were to wear almuces of black cloth, lined with
lambs’ wool or goats’ wool and extending only to the waist. Their
choir-copes were to reach only to the ground and to have modest
hoods according to their rank. They were never to wear rochets
except when celebrating mass if then required to wear them, and their
surplices were to be plain, not gathered (constricta) or embroidered.
The Subdean and Succentor, who were permanent officials, were to
wear almuces of plain ‘calabre’ (reddish brown fur from Calabria)
lined with miniver, unless they held prebends.
The Canons and Dignitaries (‘fersonae’) only (under a privilege
. granted, it is said, by K. Edward 1.) were to wear almuces of grey fur
lined with miniver (‘de minuto vario interius, et exterius de griseo?).
They might put these grey a/zt«czas on their necks for warmth under
the linen amice (s#b amictu lineo) Their choir copes (caffe nigre)
were to reach at least to the ankle, their surplices were to be rather
shorter than the cope. They were to wear black caps (f//eo/i ).
The choir cope made of ‘burnet’ was worn, at least at Lincoln, at
all times, except when the procession required silk copes. Only in
Easter and Whitsun weeks the black cope was laid aside, to show the
surplice, and likewise on chief holy days in summer, at all services,
excepting mattins (perhaps for the sake of warmth), and at the vigils
of the Dead (no doubt for mourning).

The concluding * Amen’ is written in ornamental capitals, as ending
this section of the book. A little later, probably after or upon occasion
of St Osmund's translation in 1457, the following addition has been
made in the space at the bottom of the page, but the space around the
blue initial D still wants the red arabesque border with which the
remainder of the book is ornamented. St Osmund's ZDefositio is on
4 Dec. His 7ranslatio, 16 July!.
[DE SANCTO OSMVNDO]

! St Osmund died in Dec. 1099, but as we have stated above he
was not canonized until 1456. See above, p. 74, 2. The observance of
the festival of his 7vans/ation was under debate in Convocation as late
as 1480 (Wilkins! Conci/ía, ii. 613), but was no doubt established at
Salisbury itself before that date. Contributions were required for his
shrine in 23 Jan. 1472. Sixtus IV. granted indulgence of 12 vears and
12 quadragenas ' visitantibus Eccl. Cath. Sarum et manus adiutrices
ad illius structurarum et edificiorum reparacion! porrigentibus, in obitu
et Translacionis Festivitatibus. — Msc. ef Stat. quoad Sarum, p. 12.
The remains of Bp Osmund were removed from Old Sarum (‘a castro
Sarum usque ad Novam Fabricam’), with those of bishops Roger and
Josceline, on 14 June, 1226, Osmund Reg. ii. p. 55. For some reason
or other, the Feast of his Translation was kept in July. Possibly this
was the date when the new shrine was ready. Mr A. R. Malden is
engaged in editing the accounts of the process of St Osmund's
Canonization. He tells me that the Bull for St Osmund's Canoniza-
tion was dated 1 Jan. 1456-7, and that it named 4 Dec. for the feast.
The Translation was made in 1457, before any celebration of the
Defositio had taken place. The shrine must have been got ready to
receive the coffin in 1457, but it was left only half finished as late as
15 Feb. 1472-3.

Mr Rich Jones noticed on this page (Fasz Eccl. Sarisb. p. 56). It has
however suffered as much as any part of the volume, some liquid having

1 more canonicali induto : i.e., with surplice and the almuce of grey
fur lined with miniver, and a long black choir cope.
In choir the Vicars were to wear almuces of black cloth, lined with
lambs’ wool or goats’ wool and extending only to the waist. Their
choir-copes were to reach only to the ground and to have modest
hoods according to their rank. They were never to wear rochets
except when celebrating mass if then required to wear them, and their
surplices were to be plain, not gathered (constricta) or embroidered.
The Subdean and Succentor, who were permanent officials, were to
wear almuces of plain ‘calabre’ (reddish brown fur from Calabria)
lined with miniver, unless they held prebends.
The Canons and Dignitaries (‘ fersonae’) only (under a privilege
. granted, it is said, by K. Edward 1.) were to wear almuces of grey fur
lined with miniver (‘de minuto vario interius, et exterius de griseo?).
They might put these grey a/mxuczas on their necks for warmth under
the linen amice (sub amictu Jineo) Their choir copes (caffe nigre)
were to reach at least to the ankle, their surplices were to be rather
shorter than the cope. They were to wear black caps (22//eo/i).
The choir cope made of ‘burnet’ was worn, at least at Lincoln, at
all times, except when the procession required silk copes. Only in
Easter and Whitsun weeks the black cope was laid aside, to show the
surplice, and likewise on chief holy days in summer, at all services,
excepting mattins (perhaps for the sake of warmth), and at the vigils
of the Dead (no doubt for mourning).

1 The office of Penitentiary, or Confessor, was distinct at Salisbury
in the 13th century, but in 1319 it was annexed to the Subdeanery by
Roger de Mortival in Chapter. Fast Sar. p. 268 ; Stat. Sar. p. 36.
2 The Elizabethan scribe here contents himself with writing a care
to indicate the reservation concerning the Word of God and the
statutes of the Realm, but does not think it necessary to write it a
second time on this page. He gives as a reference for the oath of the
subdean which he had before him, “Tom. 7. fol. 37. 31. Tom. 5. fo. 20.”

! St Thomas's Church, Salisbury, stands to the north of the
Cathedral. It is mentioned in a record as early as 1238.
The whole of this prayer had been defaced under the order of
K. Henry VIIIth’s proclamation, 16 Nov. 1538; so there was no need
felt to draw lines across this page in the time of Bp Jewel.
Processions to churches i urbe vel suburbio are prescribed for
Rogation Tuesday (with Dragon, Lion, and other banners), St Mark's
Day, and at other times to pray for Rain, Fair Weather, Peace, or
other occasional necessities, in the printed Processionale pp. 104, 146,
164—6. See above, p. 9r.
3 *Edmundi': Ms. 148. The Church of St Edmund was founded
by Bp Walter de la Wyle as a Collegiate church in 1270; and it was
rebuilt on a larger scale in 1407 ; in honour of St Edmund Rich of
Abingdon, formerly Treasurer of Salisbury.
3 St Martin's Salisbury was taken from the parochial jurisdiction
of St Nicholas in the early days of Salisbury and in 1228, soon after
its dedication, by Bp Poore, was committed to a priest named Harvey.
Sarum Charters, p. 191.
Leland thus introduces his account of St Martin's Salisbury (ZZiz.
fo. 67—8, iii. pp. 82—3):—
* Richard Poure Bishop of Saresbyri and first Erector of the
Cathedrale Chirch of Mew-Saresbyri, foundid the Hospitale of S.
Nicolas hard by Harnham Bridge, instituting a Master, viij. pore
wimen, and 4-pore men in it, endowing the House with Landes. On
the South side of this Hospitale is a Chapelle of S. [John] standing in an
Isle. And on the North side of this Hospitale is an old Barne, wher
in tymes past was a paroch Chirch of S. Martine. This Chirch was
prophanid and a nother new made in Saveséyri for it, bering yet the
Name of S. Martine. The cause of the Translation was bycause it
[stood] exceding low and cold, and the Ryver at rages cam into it.
This Chirch of S. Martine and the Hammelet or Village of Harnham
stode or ever any Part of New-Saresbyri was builded.”

1 This collect is the orison for the feast of the Annunciation, and
was also in use at the Lady mass ' Rorate! through Advent, and in
daily memorials and weekly commemorations in her honour at that
season. Bp Ri. Poore established the Friars Minors or Franciscans
at Old Sarum. See Sarum Charters p. 269. Leland af. Benson and
Hatcher, p. 57; cf. p. go. In 1544 when the convents were dissolved,
that of the Minorites or Greyfriars at Sarum was granted to J. Wroth,
ibid. p. 241. Dean Ro. de Hertford, who died in 1257, made the
Fratres Minores of Sarum and Pradicatores of Wilton residuary
legatees of his obit gift.
* Church of the Friars Preachers: The Dominicans removed from
Wilton to Fisherton previous to 1335. Benson and Hatcher, Wiltshire,
PP. 58,90. When the convents were dissolved in 1544 the Dominicans
or Blackfriars was granted to J. Pollard and W. Byrte, zéid. p. 241.
lt appeared at Bp Beauchamp's visitation in 1475 that there were
twenty sermons preached yearly in the Cathedral, and that nine of
these were preached by the Franciscans and Dominicans.

[Between the end of the original text, and the original rough vellum
fly-leaf just mentioned, a 4-leaf quire of thin parchment (numbered
43—46) has been inserted. Pp. 43*—44* are covered with a coarsely
written transcript of the clauses of intercession for the Departed to be
said in the Bidding of Bedes (see above, pp. 24, 30). This transcript
was evidently made in Queen Mary’s time for use in the Cathedral ;
and after her death another hand has added, in brown ink, after the
name of her brother ‘ Edward the syxte,’ in an carly year of Elizabeth,
and presumably while some were still contemplating the possibility of
Mary Q. of Scots succeeding to the English crown, the entry
*& mary y* fyrste.”

1 The Lamb Hostelry is said by Canon W. H. Rich Jones to have
been on the spot where Bp Richard Poore had a temporary lodging to
watch the building of the Cathedral Church. It is now known as
Mitre-Corner. The Bishop's procession according to antient custom
still (I speak of the occasion of my Brother's enthronization on Nov. 4,
1885) starts from the ‘ Mitre House’ outside the northern gateway of
the Close at the corner which was known, about 1300, as “ Florentine's
corner" When the new Bishop came to the trees and grass in the
Cathedral Yard the principal chorister, known as “the Bishop’s Boy,”
made him an address in Latin, to which he replied in the same
language. He then proceeded to the West door of the church, and
knelt down for a little space before entering.

1 The initial D. is put here by the editor to mark those prebends which were ex parte
Decani in 1300; or earlier.
C.—ex parte Cantoris. The numerals 1—4 in the right hand margin show in which
quarter of the capitular year each prebendary was called into residence :
I. October, November, December. 2. January, February, March.
3. April, May, June. 4. July, August, September.
? A 17th century hand has inserted *V? guid Domine’ which is the beginning of
a fresh Psalm (x.) in the Hebrew and English.
3 We are tempted to conjecture that, as Cherminster Bere was the most valuable
prebend, it was held by the Precentor when this list was made. As a matter of fact
a Precentor of Sarum held it cir. 1320. Seealso s. a. 1411; the Statute is recited in 1324,
so this seems not impossible, but it certainly did not always go with this Dignity.
* [n 1226 the Precentor held the prebend of Highworth (* W'rda?).

! Mr Rich Jones has apparently confused the two Aultons and their Psalms, nos. 27,

number of the MS. (148) is misprinted.

ton (Torleton, Torlington, or Tolleton) were respectively deacon, priest, and deacon.
Why they are placed here among the Suódeacons I cannot say. The Psalms which they
undertake are cxviii. (cxix.) verses 129—176, cxix. —cxxxvi. (- =cxx.—cxxxvii.). I do not
find Beyminster Ecclesia in this list. The prebend is Decani, diaconus, residing in the
second quarter of the capitular year, like Beyminster prima. lt is called *Netherbury in
ecclesia.’ The prebend of Teynton was annexed to the Precentorship at least about
1236—1270. See Jones, Fasti, p. 224.

It is worth noting that in the list of Canons of 1226, printed by Rich Jones in Fastz,
p- 192, the first thirty-nine names, with hardly an exception, are in the grade of Holy
Orders, 21 priests (Grimstone being out of place), 12 deacons (Yetminster secunda, put
next to the other Yetminster, out oF its grade) and 5 subdeacons. For the rest, some may
have been ‘canons of the second form.’
1 These three ‘psalms,’ assigned for the Abbat of St Wandragesil, are the Old
Testament Canticles of Esaias, Hezekiah, and Hannah. Jsas. xii. and xxxviii. ro, and
1 Sam. ii. j
3 The ‘ psalms’ of the Abbat of St Mary Montesberg, are the Song of Moses, and the
Song of Habakkuk, xod. xv. and Hadak. iii.
The ‘ psalm’ assigned to the Abbat of Bec, was the Song of Moses, Det. xxxii.

* It seems probable that since the Archd. of Berks was removed in 1836 to
the diocese of Oxford, the Archd. of Sarum should move up into his place
(no. 7). This would give a seat to the Chancellor at no. 8, in a more dignified
lace, but still on his proper side (ecanz), and would leave no. 10 available
or ''Yetminster secunda," which prebend was recently without a place
provided in the Chapter House. It would be reasonable also to set the
Treasurer's seat one piace higher on his own side (Cazuoris), by exchange
with his neighbour of Winterbourne, no. 11.

PROTESTANT REVISION. 139
[In consequence of this resolution of 1573 a pen has
been drawn five or six times across fo. 10?—15>, 20»...
23>— 30%, 325— 36>, 42-442. In fact nothing has been left
untouched but the Psalms and Gospels in the earlier part
of the Book, and the forms relating to capitular customs
and ceremonies of respect in the concluding section. The
list of relicks 155—195 had been more vigorously blotted
out with inquisitor’s black ink, and the form of the Greater
Cursing 19*—20*, probably, and the mention of St Thomas
of Canterbury (condemned by the Injunction of K. Henry
VIII. in Sept. 1538 to be erased or expunged), and likewise
any occurrence of the word ‘ pope’ has been visited by the
erasing knife in accordance with a royal decree declared
to Convocation in 1543. John Capon (or Salcote) Bishop
of Salisbury was one of those to whom the order was com-
mitted, (but the Lower House declined to name any of their
number to assist him and the Bishop of Ely in this task).]
I4O0 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
W. HARDING.
[A declaration written by William Harding, the Dean's
clerk, who had sold a small property called ‘the more
shoppis and gardyns' to the Dean and Chapter of Salis-
bury about 1470, has been preserved between the leaves of
the volume of ceremonies and processions.
It has lost a quarter of the first sheet and is consider-
ably worn and faded.
It consists of a paper roll of two sheets roughly stitched
together, and thus measuring 20 inches in length by 114 in
breadth.
The paper-mark is a bull's head with a perpendicular
line surmounted by a star of six points (the perpendicular
line making the Ist and 4th) rising between the horns.
The writer, W. Harding, does not appear in a very
creditable light in the transaction which he describes, but
he claims to have done his best to arrest the evil con-
sequences of his weakness.
The paper has neither seal nor signature at the bottom ;
and, supposing the two sheets to have been of the same
dimensions when complete, I doubt if there was room for
them at the top. As there are numerous corrections on
the paper, it may be looked upon as a draft, though one
evidently once treated as being of some importance.
A bull's head appears on some of the Low Country
paper used by Caxton. Six varieties traced by Mr Lees
Aspland have been printed in facsimile for the Holbein
Society's volume relating to Caxton's Golden Legend and
edited by Mr Alfred Aspland, but none of these examples
is identical with the mark upon the paper before us. The
perpendicular with cross lines is not unlike that on the
2nd page of facsimiles, but the bull's head has not the
horns so wide apart, but is more like the head on
Mr Aspland's third page ; where however it is surmounted
by a ' potent.']'
! It appears from a sealed deed (20 Feb. 1467) in the Muniment
Room, that W. Harding had been Clerk of the Works, and was son of
Nicholas Harding, citizen of New Sarum. His reputed son was a
Scholar of De Vaux College. The tenements were situated in *Wyn-
chester strete” and by “ Gigorstrete."

Harnham in 1435, and Hurstbourn 1452—74. He was a Residentiary
Canon.
2 Beside Canons Ri. Whitby and J. Cranborne, the deed of
20 Feb. 1466—7 mentions “William Staple, William Whitmersh, and
John Cooke prestes.” Some of the houses and the shops were sold
(circ. 1449) to Nicholas Upton, precentor, Gilbert Keymer, treasurer,
W. Ingram, Ric. Trove, and W. Whitmersh. The Chapter sub-
sequently made some compensation to W. Harding's son; so, possibly,
they doubted the sincerity of this declaration.

HOLY WATER
AND HOLY BREAD.
[In a fine Ms., Sarum Breviary (cir. 1440), given to his
Cathedral library by Bp Edward Denison, but formerly
belonging to Arlingham Church in Gloucestershire, there
is an addition cum nota, which was made on the blank cir. 1470.
column at the end of the Temporale (facing the Kalendar
which divides it from the Proprium Sanctorum), about the
year 1470. It may be said to be of Worcester Use, but it
belongs fairly to the offices of the Processtonale, so we may
reprint the text here from a photograph given us many
years ago by Dr H. T. Kingdon, now Lord Bishop of
Fredericton, who read a paper on the subject at War-
minster, 22 Aug. 1877.
[n giving holy water to the people.]
Remember youre promys made yn baptym.
And chrystys mercyfull bloudshedyng.
By the wyche most holy sprynklyng.
Off all youre syns youe haue fre perdun :
Haue mercy vppon me oo god.
After thy grat mercy.

Glory be to the father and to the sun. and to the

As hyt was yn the begynnyng so now and ever & yn
the world of worlds so be hytt.
By the wyche.
More than sixty years later, Latimer, being Bishop of 1:35—9.
Worcester, gave his clergy a version of this rhyme, as
* Words [to be] spoken to the people in giving them holy
water. And he added a companion form (not found in
the MS. Breviary now at Salisbury) of
‘What to say in giving holy bread.
Of Christ’s body this is a token
Which on the crosse for our sinnes was broken,
Wherefore of your sinnes you must be forsakers
If of Christ's death ye will be partakers.’
Dr Chr. Wordsworth, Eccl, Biog. ii. 531, ed. 1853.
(The
King’s
Visitors at
Doncaster,
1548.)
144 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
[Bp Kingdon makes the interesting suggestion that
Latimer being made Bp of Worcester in 1535 came into
contact with the Gloucestershire vernacular service (which
had been set to music some 60 or 70 years before, as the
experts at the British Museum agree) and so attempted to
give it more general currency. At the same time he
added ‘a jingle to be used at the giving of the antidoron,
or blessed bread. For as there was holy water to remind
Christians of their baptism, so was there holy bread handed
round, during or after service, as a reminder to the non-
communicant of the blessed sacrament of the Eucharist.’
A Vernacular Service (1877), pp. 7, 8.
Further, some twelve years later we find among the
injunctions given by the Royal Visitors to the clergy and
laity of Doncaster deanery, a repetition of the aforesaid
forms with the addition of a third, in the following terms:
(iiij) Item. You shall every Sunday, at the time of
your going about the church with holy water, into three or
four places, where most audience and assembly of people
is, for the declaration of the ceremonies, say distinctly and
plainly, that your parishioners may well hear and perceive
the same, these words
Remember Christ’s bloodshedding
by the which most holy sprinkling
of all your sins you have free pardon.
And in like manner, before the dealing of the holy bread,
these words:
Of Christ’s body this is the token,
Which on the cross for our sins was broken:
Wherefore of his death if you will be partakers,
Of vice and sin you must be forsakers.
And the clerk in like manner shall bring down the
pax, and standing within the church door, shall say boldly
to the people these words :
This is a token of joyful peace,
which is betwixt God and men’s conscience:
Christ alone is the peacemaker,
Which straitly commands peace between brother and
brother.
And so long as ye use these ceremonies, so long shall
ye use these significations.

BROTHERHOOD OF THE CHAPTER.
[Although at Salisbury the relation of the Bishop to the
Chapter was reduced to the position of a canon among
other canons’, the Chapter had been constituted in the first
instance as the council of the city clergy, his advisers.
As a community in which divine service, eucharistic
intercession, and other holy works were done continually,
the canonici et confratres ecclesie Saresberiensis, like those of
other Cathedral churches and some monastic Chapters, had
gained a reputation for sanctity even in the days when
their Church was at Old Sarum.
At Lincoln the old Obit Kalendar, written about 1185,
mentions the names of certain friends and benefactors,
besides those who were canons and gremials of the Chapter ;
such are *Outhild, soror nostra,’ “Goda, soror nostra,”
“ Merewen, soror nostra," * Osbertus presbiter, frater noster,"
and (not improbably) several of the royal personages, the
laymen and women noted in the same volume. (Lincoln
Cath. Statutes, ii. pp. ccxxxvii, ccxl, ccxlii*) And the
I5th century “ Forma admittendi aliquem. extraniumT in
fratrem et participem omnium suffragiorum in ecclesia Cathe-
drali Lincoln ministrancium," and “ Forma admisstonis lat-
corum in confratres vel consorores ecclesie" (the latter in
English), with their Oath upon admission as “ Brothir of
this Chapitour and churche of Lincoln," are contained in
the Black Book (25:7. i. pp. 408—410).
At Worcester a Confraternity of the Chapter was in-
stituted on St Wulstan's day Jan. 1225, but it was destined
to last only seven years. (Wharton, Anglia Sacra, i. 487.)
Canute and his brother Harold had been received into
fraternity at Canterbury, and Athelstan and others at
St Gall. (D. Rock, CZ. of our Fathers, ii. 321—337.)
A monastic form “De fraternitate facienda" is written
on a fly-leaf in the Office Book of the Benedictine Abbats
of Evesham, somewhat later than the text of the book
which was written cir. 1300, and has been edited by the
Rev. H. A. Wilson for the Henry Bradshaw Society in
1893, see pp. 156—7. This ‘admission of a lay person to
fraternity ' bears a close affinity to the Sarum form, as well
as to that for admitting a friend into confraternity with the
Brethren and Sisters of St Nicholas' Hospital, which was

[The Evesham form, which is similar in general purport,
though different in verbal expression, here and in some
other parts, adds “ désciplinis” to masses, hours, orisons,
watchings, fastings and alms-deeds and other spiritual
benefits!, * which are done in this church, for ever' and adds
with greater modesty “ et quod nos simus participes de bene-
ficiis tuis" (Liber Evesham, p. 157). The person admitted
then kisses the book, and the abbat and all the convent in
order; after which the president charges him to show bene-
volence to the Church, pronounces the benediction “ Socie-
tatem electorum suorum in celis: concedat tibi omnipotens
et misericors Deus" : and bids him go into the church and
pray God, our Lady, St Egwin, and all the saints whose
bodies rest there, ‘to grant what we have granted, and to
bring him to the brotherhood in heaven.']
1 The Sarum form used in 1427 reads “fredicacionum, ieiuniorum,
abstinenciarum, et vigiliarum, ceterorumque bonorum operum, que per
nos, seu confratres nostros istius ecclesie Canonicos, eiusdemue Vicarios,
ceterosque huiusmodi ecclesie ministros, Dominus Jhesus Christus in
ista ecd. Sarum, seu in ecclesiis et locis eidem subiectis, fieri dederit,
Seu concesserit, pro sua magna pietate perpetuis temporibus duraturis."
In 1392, John Waltham, Bp of Salisbury, procured from Pope Boniface IX.
the confirmation of a Composition between himself and the Chapter, securin
certain rights for himself, and that his successors might visit the Cathedra
Body de septennio in septennium, either personally, or by a prebendary, as
Commissary, for five days, after giving 40 days’ notice. The Bishop may
correct the Dean, after taking counsel with the Chapter, or can require him
to reform abuses in others within three months. During Visitation, '* omni die
potest Episcopus intrare Capitulum ut Canonicus, et si aliqua sint episcopo
relata pro tempore corrigenda, ut Episcopus iniungere ut corrigantur."

eum quo minus dicta reparacio' debite fuit. Et quantum
ad sufficienciam librorum, non reperitur qui ex deuocione
sua aliquod antiphonarium hijs diebus donare vel legare
voluit. et paucitas librorum causat multociens quod plures
vicarij non cantent prout tenentur.

[ON THE SITES OF THE MEDIAEVAL ALTARS OF
SALISBURY CATHEDRAL CHURCH.
IN the early ages of the Christian Church, in the days
of St Ignatius, Eusebius, Athanasius, and Augustine of
Africa, there was, as a rule, but one single altar in any
church; and such is still the custom of the conservative
Oriental churches, for there the exceptions to this rule are
treated as emphatically exceptional.
However, at Jerusalem itself the requirements of Latin
pilgrims had by the seventh century led to the creation of
two or three additional altars in the oratories at the holy
places; for in the Western Church, even in the time of
St Augustine, a plurality of altars had begun to arise, and
in later times the number was multiplied considerably.
This was due in part to a desire for honouring the resting-
places of the bodies of saints, or of martyrs’ relics, with
a Holy Table upon which the Eucharist might be offered,
and partly the increased number of altars was due to the
increasing frequency of non-communicating attendance at
the mysteries, a practice which led to services being held
by several priests in the same church, either at different
altars or at various hours between dawn and noon. The
growing practice of endowing chantries for the founders or
their friends contributed naturally to the same result as
time went on, and more particularly in the fifteenth
century. But, to revert to earlier days :—
When we come to the time of St Gregory the Great
and our later St Augustine, we hear of a church in the
south-west of France being built with thirteen altars, some
of them with relics brought from Rome by Palladius,
Bishop of Saintogne.
In our own country, a little later—in A.D. 710—A cca,
Bishop of Hexham (a good musician who provided for his
singers a Kentish instructor named Maban, well versed in
the Gregorian traditions), furnished his church with a fine
library of books, and procured also relics of the Apostles
and martyrs, and erected separate porches or chapels, with
altars, in their honour.
But let us come still nearer home :—
At Old Sarum, something of the same kind in all
probability took place. The church there was consecrated
on 5th April, 1092. From a document belonging to the
year 1179 or thereabouts we learn incidentally that in
188 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
addition to the high altar, where there was an image of the
Blessed Virgin, there were at Old Sarum at least two other
altars—namely, the altar of the Holy Rood and the altar
of All Hallows. Whether or not these were all, I cannot
say for certain. But there is unmistakeable evidence that
in the first quarter of the 13th century, when the scheme
for leaving Old Sarum was already half accomplished, and
when this New Basilica, this House of God in which we
meet to-day', was yet in building (and it may be called,
I suppose, the work of a single effort, almost, if not quite,
continuous and uninterrupted in plan and execution),
cloths, books, and other necessary furniture and ornaments
were provided for at least six altars. And these ornaments
were handed over by the Treasurer Abraham (and their
receipt acknowledged) to serve for the divers altars in the
Church of Sarum. This was in accordance with the Rule
or Institution which St Osmund had given for Old Sarum
120 or 130 years before—" Let Dean, Precentor, Chan-
cellor, and Treasurer be resident in the Church of Sarum
without any kind (or hope) of excusing. The Treasurer
in charge of treasures and ornaments and in the manage-
ment of the lights (/usinaribus) is supreme.” So at this
day the statutes drafted by the late Archbishop Benson
for Truro lay down that * The Treasurer is the responsible
keeper of all the moveable or fixed furniture of the
Church" (cap. 8. There are three or more old lists in the
Osmund Register, the first detailing “ornaments” found in
the treasury on 3oth March, 1214, reviewed in 1222, pro-
bably when Treasurer Abraham's charge devolved upon
St Edmund. (See above, pp. 169—177.)
Then follows a list of “Ornaments of the Church of
Sarum” contributed to the same ('* eidem" not “ezsdem”)
in the days when Abraham held the Treasurership (p. 177).
The other list, which I call the fragment, is a list of
" Ornaments delivered over by Abraham the Treasurer to
serve for divers altars in the Church of Sarum," supposed
(rightly, I think) to belong to the latter date, 1222 (179—82).
Certain important events had occurred in the interval
while Abraham had charge of the Treasury.
In 1215 Richard Poore, the strenuous Dean, became
Bishop of Chichester. .
In 1216 King John, the hinderer of the Church, was
succeeded by King Henry III.
In 1217 Bp Poore came back from Chichester to be
Bishop of Old Sarum.
Having fortifed himself with a letter from Pope

Honorius III. he called a general meeting of the canons
of Sarum, who met in chapter on July 2nd, 1218, and
agreed to raise funds for removing the cathedral church
to Salisbury. :
“In the year of grace 1219 was begun a new wooden
chapel, ad novas Sarum, in honour of the Blessed Virgin,
on April 14th, the Monday after Easter week ; and so well
the work was carried through, in a short space of time,
that his lordship performed divine service for the first time
in it on Trinity Sunday (June 2nd, 1219), and dedicated
a (or the) burial ground there.” On the Feast of the
Assumption (15th August) Bp Poore and the four prin-
cipal dignitaries, “with the unanimous consent of the
canons present, agreed (statuerun?t) that the removal from
the old site unto the place of the New Works be carried
into effect, at the feast of All Saints (1st November) next
ensuing, by all who shall be able and willing to take part
in the removal, and that the rest [of the canons and their
vicars} meanwhile should give their attention to the build-
ing.” Some of the canons were then deputed to go to
different dioceses in England, and as far as Scotland, to
make collections ; e.g., W. de Wenda, the precentor (who,
I infer, wrote the report from which I am quoting, and
who, while the work was pending, became Dean of Sarum),
was employed in London, and Master Lucas (was this
Luke de Blewbury, the King’s Treasurer?) collected in
Chichester.
On St Vitalis’ Day, April 28th, 1220, after divine
service, litany in procession, and sermon, the foundation of
the New Church, Sarum, was laid. Bp Poore laid the
three first stones for the Pope, the Archbishop, and him-
self respectively. William Longespee, Earl of Sarum, his
wife, the Countess Ela de Wittery, *a lady deserving
praise," inasmuch as she was filled with the fear of the
Lord [and, as in private duty bound, I must record it, not
least for her good work as a founder or benefactress of the
new hospital of St Nicholas in or near Salisbury at Harn-
ham Bridge]!, laid each a stone, as did two or three other
grandees, the four principal persons of the Cathedral, the
archdeacons (Robert Grosseteste probably for one), and
other canons.
A few weeks later, on Whit-Monday, May 17th, 1220,
the coronation of King Henry took place at Westminster,
and on July 7th the remains of St Thomas (Becket) were
solemnly translated at Canterbury. In August a three
days' general chapter was held ; but before the month was

out Dean Adam, of Ilchester, died suddenly at Sunning
and was buried zz capella nova, at Salisbury, and William
de Wenda, the precentor, was elected in his place as dean.
In 1222 Edmund Rich, of Abingdon, succeeded Abra-
ham as Treasurer of Sarum, which had, as it was said,
a Poore bishop but a Rich treasurer; and he was one of
the 35 or 36 canons who were present upon the great
occasion when, upon Michaelmas Eve, 28th September,
1225, Bp Richard Poore dedicated three altars in the
* new basilica,” where he was joined by Henry, Archbishop
of Dublin, a former canon, and on Michaelmas Day itself
by Stephen Langton, Archbishop of Canterbury, as well as
Ralph de Neville, Bp of Chichester, and four other bishops.
Otho also came from Rome. And in October (Wednesday,
October 21st, 1225) King Henry IIL, who heard mass in
state (*/oriose" : or does it mean * Mass of the Glorious
Virgin," which Bp Poore had started, and for which that
Bishop presented a pair of candlesticks which had been
provided by a legacy?). The King offered ten marcs of
silver and a silken cloth; and Hubert de Burgh, the
justiciary, " vowed to give a golden gospel book or text,
enriched with relics of divers saints, to the honour of the
Blessed Virgin and as a contribution to the New Work."
This was duly brought next day, and was offered “on the
altar of the New Work,” and then was delivered into the
hands of the Treasurer (St Edmund), the Dean retaining
a key. On Innocents’ Day, December 28th, 1225, the
King brought a ring with a ruby, a silken cloth, and
a golden cup, and after mass he desired the Dean to have
the jewel and ring inserted in the justiciary's "text." It is
mentioned also that on October 5th the Bishop procured
a seven years’ grant to himself in trust for the Works of
all unappropriated offerings and oblations made there, and
the entire keepership of “that new altar and that new
chapel,” promising that the whole should revert to the
Treasurer, and the oblations of all the altars to the use
of the common fund, as had been the custom at Sarum
[from St Osmund’s time].
But we must now return to the former Treasurer’s
inventories, which relate in part to the vestments and
other ornaments or church furniture which were gathered
while the Chapter was at Old Sarum, and in some part to
preparations made with a view to furnishing the New
Work, which was already planned and in course of building.
I will mention a few items, which I select from the long lists.
In List I.:—Ornaments inventoried in 1214 and 1220.
Among processional crosses, there is one for Sundays.
ON THE SITES OF THE ALTARS. IQ!
An arm of St Aldhelm. Several feretories with relics, one
called St Boniface’s. A vessel containing oil of St Katha-
rine (no doubt from her tomb at Sinai). A gold ring for
the Boys’ feast (Innocents’ Day, or possibly that of St
Nicholas). A fan of silver, given by the Bishop. Two
ampuls [for holy oils], the gift of the Bishop of Chichester.
(Were these given by Bishop Poore while he held that see,
or by his successor, who attended the laying the stones,
and in whose diocese Canon Luke made collections ?)
Four cruets of gold for the service of the altar. Two
crystal cruets adorned with gold at the top. A silver
crown with three silver chains, with a dove of silver for
the Eucharist. Nine candlesticks of enamel, and two of
tin, and two of iron. Three copes which belonged to
Bishop Roger [who died in 1139]. One cope given by
the Archbishop. Another, by the Bishop of Chichester.
A pall given by the Lord Bp H[erbert] at St Osmund's
tomb. Two palls before (“coram”) the principal altar, one
over-altar pall of silk embroidered, one of white silk diaper,
with two over-altar cloths of the same kind (used) on feasts
of B. Mary (superaltartbus in the MS. here seems to me to
have an adjectival force) A chasuble which was St
Osmund's. A silk cloth before the altar, the gift of King
Richard’, with elephants; another before the greater [or
high] altar, the gift of Queen Eleanor. Item, an old cloth
at the altar of St Martin’s, and two other old ones, the gift
of the countess [Ela]. An ark (or chest) bound with iron,
well suited for charters and relics, nigh the principal altar.
Item, a long chest, in like manner, of iron, in which of old
time the (golden) super-altar was kept. One coffer in the
vestry (vestzarzo).
In the second list (offerings given in Treasurer Abra-
ham’s days):—A precious vessel of silver in which the
Eucharist is laid up (reponitur), the gift of Bp H[erbert,
who died in 1216]. Item, two silver cruets, from the same
donor. Two silver cruets, the gift of Dean Adam [who
died in 1220]. Two palls, the gift of Bp R[ichard Poore]
at his inthronization [in 1217]. Two palls, the gift of K.
Henry, the son of K. John.
Then there is the third [fragmentary] list :—" These are
the ornaments delivered over by Abraham the Treasurer
to serve for divers altars in the church of Sarum (I quote
merely the headings, the details having been given on
pp. 179—182, above)—
I. At the Altar of St Peter.
2. Atthe Altar of All Saints.

192 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
At the Altar of St Stephen.
At the Altar of Blessed Nicholas.
At the Altar of Blessed Mary Magdalen.
At the Altar of Blessed Thomas the Martyr."
And there the fragment ends.
Abraham de Winton was succeeded by St Edmund
Rich as Treasurer in 1222, so that is the latest date which
we can give to the list. I said that provision was made by
that time for “six altars at least”; for there are two leaves
wanting in the Osmund Register which the Bishop kindly
allowed me to examine before it was rebound at Cam-
bridge, under Mr Jenkinson's care. Five of the names of
altars carry us round the Lady Chapel in regular order
from north to south, as you will see in the diagram which
has been prepared by a former pupil of Miss Douglas, at
the Godolphin School’, and so into the south-eastern aisle
or limb; thus, 1, St Peter’s altar, sometimes called the
altar of the Apostles (No. 5 on the diagram, where the
Gorges monument now stands). 2. All Hallows (which
has, in other documents, the alternative titles the Holy
Trinity and the Sa/ve altar), that is at the extreme east
(No. 6 on the diagram), where is the Holy Table now in
use for certain services out of choir. 3. St Stephen’s,
sometimes known as the altar of (all) the Martyrs (No. 8
on the plan), where the Seymour monument now stands.
Then in the small south-east transept (which balances this
one * where we are now met) come the 4th and 5th entered
in the Treasurer's list (Nos. 9 and 10 on our diagram), the
altar of Blessed Nicholas, and the altar of Blessed Mary
Magdalen.
The list of ornaments (so far as it is extant) carries us
no further to the south; but it makes a fresh beginning on
the north in the far corner of the great N.W. transept with
an altar dedicated, or ready to be dedicated, in honour of
the then comparatively modern but highly reputed saint,
the great Archbishop Becket, who had been slain at
Canterbury, 29th January, 1170, just 50 years before.
The altar of St Thomas is at No. 17 in the diagram. And
it should be borne in mind that it was just at the end of
Treasurer Abraham's time that the solemn translation of
St Thomas the Martyr's relics took place at Canterbury.
Now the question arises: Supposing that we had the
missing pages of the Osmund Register, a document which
is contemporary with the building of this church, should
we have any more altars mentioned than these six? It is
On o
1 Dorothy Mary Wordsworth died in her 24th year, Sept. 3rd,
1898. 4 This was read in the Chapel of St Martin, etc.
ON THE SITES OF THE ALTARS. 193
almost certain that there must have been one more such
altar, besides those whereof I have quoted the names from
the pages which are extant; and I think it more than likely
that there were three, or even five or six more, irrespective
of the high altar. For, first, I would ask, was there no
altar besides that of St Thomas the Martyr in the great
north-west transept? If there were one at that date (as
in later times there were probably two altars there, as we
shall see, (certainly one) besides St Thomas’, namely, St
Edmund’s and St John the Baptist’s), then that one must of
course have been in the earliest days of this Cathedral
Church the altar of St John Baptist, known as the Altar
of Relics, which is mentioned incidentally in the will of
Robert de Kareville (in 1267). He was Treasurer of
Salisbury a few years after the death of St Edmund. Of
course the fact that a relics altar existed in 1267 does not
amount to a proof that there was such an altar provided,
projected, or provisionally furnished in 1220; but it needs
no elaborate argument to prove that the other altar in the
great transept on the north of the church was not as yet
dedicated in memory of Edmund the Confessor, because
at the time of Treasurer Abraham he was not as yet a
canonized saint (or even a canon), but a singularly virtuous
young man teaching Aristotle at Oxford. I think, then,
that there was a relics altar of St John the Baptist
designed for the nearer end of the north-west transept ;
and I think it not impossible that there may have been
already in like manner in plan, and presently in existence,
altars of St Margaret and St Michael, and perhaps one of
St Lawrence, between them, in the great south-west
transept; but I cannot give positive proof of the existence
of these dedications here until the close of the 14th
century. Still I ask those acquainted with the place,
who can speak with authority, whether the stones out of
the work (in the shape of piscinas and aumbries) do not
speak of altars already prepared or proposed in the early
part of the 13th century? But pray look around you here
in this smaller or north-east transept. Have we not here
the signs of provision for two altars? We call this some-
times, in modern days, the Morning Prayer Chapel, and
thus it is marked in Coney’s plan, drawn, I believe, in
1830, and engraved in the latest Monasticon in 1846, and
represented as being even at that time provided with a
holy table (the other, by the way, being at the extreme
east of the Lady Chapel), though neither of these two
appears in the plan czr. 1733. Now, in this chapel or tran-
sept where we are, there were two altars; the one of St
W. S. C. 13
194 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
Martin, the other of St Katharine. Speaking generally,
St Katharine (of 11th century cz/tus), like St Margaret (of
12th century cu/tus) in the south transept, was of sufficient
standing to be honoured in the earliest days of Salisbury.
And St Martin (like St Michael, one of the earliest dedica-
tions introduced in England), without all manner of doubt,
had an altar here to the northward of the choir while
Richard Poore was Bishop of Salisbury. For, though the
Treasurer's list of church furniture, so far as it still remains
unmutilated in the Osmund Register, does not name the
altar of St Martin under a specific heading like the others,
yet it is expressly named four or five times on other pages
of the same register, namely, in the Consuetudinary, or
Book of Customs, in which Bp Richard Poore explained
the institutions of St Osmund in such a manner as would
suit the new and rising church of Salisbury, which customs
are now in the course of reprinting at the Cambridge
University Press, under the editorship of my cousin, Mr
Walter Howard Frere. There it appears that in the first
quarter of the 13th century the Treasurer was bound to
provide a mortarium, or large night light, to burn every
night throughout the year before the altar of St Martin
(and another before the west doors of the choir entrance)
till mattins were done. Also that this altar was the first to
be visited by a procession between nones and mass in
Lent through the door of the presbytery; also that before
mattins on Easter Day this altar was to be the place to
which the Bishop and Dean were to carry the cross from
the sepulchre on Easter morning. On that occasion they
went out of the choir by the south door, and so went round,
as the Exeter Ordinale more plainly states, returning
through the midst of the choir, and then going out again
by the north door to “an altar on the north,” as the
Breviary distinctly says, and as the printed Processtonale
bears witness.
I may here mention that, according to a rubric in

of censing altars at Maguificat, the altars of St Martin,
St Katharine, and St Peter (or the Apostles), on the north

St Mary Magdalen, and St Stephen on the south, with the
“altar of Holy Trinity, which is called .Sa/ve" (at the
extreme east), as the meeting point between them. And
the last-named is, in the parallel section of Sarum Customs

ON THE SITES OF THE ALTARS. 195
1222, Mr Malden (to whose kind communications from
time to time during the last three or four years, as well as
for his special help in arranging my material for to-day,
I have been and am indebted) has drawn my attention to
the will of the Treasurer Robert de Kareville in 1267, where
the sum of Z7 is bequeathed to purchase fourteen silver
cruets (f4ialas), so that each altar may have a pair to serve
it, honouring God, and keeping his memory green’.
I confess that if this stood alone I should say that there
had been at that date no more than seven altars; but as
our documentary evidence obliges me, I cannot reckon less
than nine as either existing or in course of preparation,
and this without including High Altar, Parish Altar, and
two others which I will mention anon. To begin with
(1) Peter and Apostles, (2) All Saints, Trinity, or .Sa/ve,
(3) Stephen and Martyrs, (4) Nicholas, (5) Mary Magdalen,
and (6) Thomas Martyr—z.e., the six mentioned? in what
I call the fragment—then St Martin's Altar, which is
mentioned incidentally under the head of cloths (5a),
as is the A//are majus in another list of Treasurer Abra-
ham's days in 1214 or 1222?, and the so-called “ Parish
Altar," which I fancy was in the nave, all eight of which
are mentioned in the Osmund Register besides the High
Altar of the Assumption, which certainly was dedicated by
Archbishop Boniface before the year 1267, namely, on the
29th or 3oth of September, 1258*. "Then, I believe, it was
about the year 1265 that Nicholas of St Quintin gave an
annual rent charge of five marcs, for the maintenance of a
chaplain to celebrate mass for the workmen of the said
fabric and others coming to hear it daily at morn, at the
altar of St Cross assigned to the said fabric.
This, I take it, was either the same as the Morning altar
in the nave, which Mr Malden proves to have been on thc
north side, the second bay westward from the north-west
leg of the tower. If it be insisted that the Morning altar
in the nave had a dedication in honour of St Mary the
Virgin, we are driven to the conclusion that either there
was more than one Morrow Mass altar, for which a prece-
dent may be found in other churches, and in that case I
would conjecture that the altar of Holy Rood was on the
stone choir screen, if such a structure was already erected,

* [n my own opinion the site of the present altar (No. “[1]”
in the diagram) is more likely to have been that of the original
High Altar than the position further westward, No. 2 in the diagram,
at the intersection of choir and transept, which Canon Rich Jones
proposed to assign for it.

above the entrance of the choir, or else I would point to
instances here and elsewhere where one altar had a plu-
rality of dedication titles.
[Since I read this paper, Mr Malden has found, in a
deed of gift of John Chaundeler, senior, dated 4th Aug.,
1406, among the Chapter Muniments at Salisbury (Press 4,
Division 3, ‘ ZZerae") explicit mention of two Morning altars,
called ‘altare matutinale’ and ‘ secundum altare matutinale,
where there was a daily mass zz aurora.]'
There were at Evesham two altars of the Cross, and
two (if not three) of that same dedication at Wells. More-
over, at Lincoln, at all events, the Morrow Mass was at
different altars at different dates, pro arbitrio Decani et
Capituli. See my Mediaeval Services, pp. 16, 187.
The will of Treasurer Karevill aforesaid included a
bequest in 1267 to paint the fabric, or workmanship, above
the cross on high (e/evatum)*. Then we must not forget
! |. may add that when the organ-case was in course of replace-
ment in July, 1898, at Lincoln, I had the opportunity of examining
some parts of the surface of the stone rood.loft there, which are
usually hidden from sight. The Ju/pitum is a half octagon, capable
of holding more than one person if necessary. It is mounted by
three broad stone steps, the middle portion of them having been
hacked away when an organ was erected in 1826. The pulpitum
is of original oak, of about the date of the stalls (1380). It has
been altered in the present century to support gilded organ pipes.
It overhangs the entrance into the choir, and was adapted for singing
eastward (zof towards the nave). Mr Logsdail assures me, but I
was in Lincoln too late to see this, that there were supports for
book-desks on the angles above the dean's and the precentor’s stalls,
as for the Epistle and Gospel. The upper step or platform, being
wider than the pu/pitum, would hold several singers if required.
There is a still longer stone bench with its back towards the nave,
where they could sit hidden by the western parapet of the screen
till it was time to mount the stone platform in front of them. Possibly
a crucifix may have stood where the steps have long since been hewn
away partially. I do not now think that there was ever an altar oz
the screen at Lincoln. But as the western face of that screen required
to be re-adorned by the clever Lincoln stone-carver, James Pink,
cir. 1770, we may give some credence to a tradition that there had
once been images of the Passion on either side of the entrance of the
choir from the nave ; and we may conjecture that (as was clearly the
case with the later stone screen at Tattershall, in Lincolnshire) there
may have been likewise an altar and piscina on each side, against the
west face of the screen, on either side of the doorway, the carved
histories of the Passion making reredosses to these two altars which
were in the nave, or, to speak more precisely, beneath the lantern of
the Rood Tower. See Dr E. Mansel Sympson, in Proc. S. A. L.,2 S.
xvii. 97. Also his paper on Lincolnshire Rood Screens, Linc. Archit.
Soc. Reports, 1890, pp. 185-213.
? [n a smaller church in Lincolnshire, Coates by Stow (St Edith's),
there remained, until the rood-loft was repaired a few years ago, painted
boards, right and left of the place where the cross must once have been,
shutting out the vista further to the east from the nave.
ON THE SITES OF THE ALTARS. 197
to count, among altars already existing at Salisbury in
1267, the Relics Altar, near which Karevill himself desired
to be buried, and to which he made a special bequest.
That the Altar of Relics (at least in the 15th century)
had the title also of St John the Baptist’s Altar we know
from a MS. which was written for use in this church, and
which still is in the possession of the Dean and Chapter.
Whether this altar had that dedication in the 13th century
I cannot satisfactorily decide.
Again, it does not seem probable that the altar of St
Edmund the Confessor in the north transept (he was
canonised in 1246) would be still wanting twenty years
after his canonisation, unless it were that the prophet was
so far without honour in his own country. An altar of
St Edmund certainly was in existence within four years
after Karevill’s death ; and the presumption perhaps may
be that it was already in existence in 1267. So, on the
whole, I conclude that the seven altars, to which he
bequeathed cruets for wine and water, were not the only
ones then in existence, but were either the set of seven
round the eastern wall of the church or else a set of seven
altars arranged across the church on the line of the great
transept. It may be worth mentioning that among the
earlier list of ornaments already provided or in charge
in the time of Treasurer Abraham, about 1222,
the altar of St Peter had a pair of cruets,
All Hallows had a pair of silver cruets given by Succentor
John (he flourished about 1198— 1212),
St Stephen had a pair of candlesticks of copper,
St Nicholas had a pair of tinnen cruets,
(St Mary Magdalen had apparently neither candlesticks
nor cruets),
St Thomas Martyr had a pair of candlesticks of brass, and
a pair of cruets of tin. (See above, pp. 180—182.)
Possibly those four older pairs of phials still remained
to be supplemented by the seven silver pairs.
Besides these, there was the altar of St Andrew, known
also as the altar of the Holy Ghost, which stood in the
nave on the south side “towards the way to the cloisters.”
(See No. xiv! in the diagram.) We know that a few
months before Abp Boniface came to dedicate the High
Altar of the Assumption, and sundry other altars at
Salisbury, in 1258, the old Dean, Robert de Hertford or
Wodeford, died. Being desirous to partake still in the
prayers of his brethren, he had by his will in 1256 given
directions to found a chantry for his soul and the souls of
1 Misprinted “15,” after p. 72.
198 = SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
his benefactors and all canons of Sarum and all faithful
souls; and one of the Priest Vicars was to be appointed
to do the service, and to have 40s, ze, three-fifths of
the annual income of 5 marcs, which the Abbess of
Wilton was liable to pay. Now it was not the custom as
yet to build a chantry chapel and set up a new altar in
it; but the custom in the 13th century was to give an
endowment, and to ask the authorities to assign that the
service should be performed in its proper turn: the requisite
mass, at some altar already dedicated; and the evensong
and mattins or Dirge of the Dead, in some convenient
place. Sometimes very naturally a preference would be
given to the altar near which the deceased was buried, and
he would sometimes express a desire as to his burial-place,
possibly with a special devotion to some particular saint or
other dedication, although it was not always found con-
venient to carry out such intimations precisely. However,
in the case of Dean Robert de Hertford, although the
place for his vicar chaplain’s service (“aznuale,” as it was
called) is not specified in the actual wording of the deeds
themselves, it is named as being “ad altare beat? Andreae”
in the heading to one of them, as it is entered in the so-
called “Osmund” Register (L p. 390); and the date is
3oth March, 1256. So I think there may have been an
altar of St Andrew already at that date.
In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries it was usual
for the Dean and Chapter to make an order as to the
assignment of chantry masses of constant weekly occur-
rence, which were sometimes called “smzssae currentes."
The authorities fixed a list of these for one year, specifying
by name what chaplains were to say mass, at what altar,
for whose souls’ repose, and directing the precise order of
succession in which each was bound to celebrate, beginning
after the “morrow mass," which was at an early hour when
it was light, and the last (or last but one) ending before the
high mass, usually about 11 o'clock. I have a transcript
of four such lists for Salisbury, dated respectively A.D. 1348,
1435, 1468, and 1473". Even at the latest of these dates
the number of chantries was no more than 13, some of
them, it is true, having more than one mass, and employing
accordingly more than one chaplain. This number is
nothing to compare with the total number of chantries
which were left at St Paul's, London, or at Lincoln even
after amalgamations into groups of those which had poor
endowments there were effected. At St Paul's, in 1391,
some 58 or 59 chantries were united into a number which
1 See pp. 224-5.
ON THE SITES OF THE ALTARS. 199
may be reckoned at the outside as 33, or (on a different
principle of classification) may be stated as 27. In 1547
there were 36 chantries there, served by 52 or 53 chaplains,
some of whom lived in a mansion called “the Presteshous,”
founded for them, while the remainder occupied chambers
belonging to their respective chantries, as the late Dr
Sparrow Simpson has told us.
At Salisbury, so far as I can at present learn, the
number of established chantries was never very high’,
although the names of many friends of the Church were
from time to time registered in the martyrology, the
kalendar, or obit lists, or were recited at the Bidding of
the Bedes on Sunday mornings, as some of them now are
commemorated at an annual service in memory of Founders,
Benefactors, and Worthies which is in part derived from
the MS. Processional still belonging to the Dean and
Chapter. Service and MS. are both printed here.
Some years ago Canon Rich Jones, when he was treat-
ing of the subject which we are now considering, and to
which he devoted some attention, appealed to the rubrics
of the Sarum Pyrocesstonale. He was very nearly “on the
right scent,” as we say, but he unfortunately went off on a
wrong trail. He appealed to the rubrics of the Processionale
printed in 1502, and other years, for general use in parish
churches, but he failed to notice that the part which he
used was not drawn up with a special reference to Salis-
bury, but was arranged so as to suit the case of any church
and every parish, so far as that could be done, or at least
to give a rational and intelligible example which might be
followed or applied z&utazzs mutandis. Whereas if only he
had looked instead into the manuscript Processionale in
the Cathedral Library drawn up for a dignitary here about
1445-50, he would have found directions for visiting the
altars here in rotation, as it is detailed in the Orders of
proceedings at the Washing of the Altars on Maundy
Thursday (see pp. 73-9), to the following effect :—

You will notice in the central part of the wall of this
chapel a stone doorway, worked in between the earlier and
more beautiful wings, fragments of the stone choir screen
which James Wyatt, the architect, removed about a century
ago, to place them in this other beautiful but incongruous
position (as a modiste two or three years ago may have
taken the beautiful wing plumage of a bird to insert it in
another beautiful structure for which, I think, it was not
originally designed). That doorway once led from the
side of the Lady Chapel into a chantry chapel called
Bishop Beauchamp's Chapel until it was removed here by
Wyatt and pieced up between the two halves of the stone
screen which he took from the west end of the choir, where
in more recent times the present metal screen has been
placed.
I may here briefly mention in passing—
The Robert Hungerford Chantry *of our Lord Jesu
Christ, and his Most Blessed Mother Mary" (B),
Bishop Beauchamp's Chantry (C),
neither of which, I regret to say, are now any longer stand-
ing, since they were removed in 1789.
Also the grates of the Walter Hungerford Chapel of
the Annunciation, which were removed from (F) the north-
east of the nave to (G) the south-east of the presbytery,
and the Bishop Audley Chapel of the Assumption,
founded in 1520, and still in its original plage (at A).
We come now to give such evidence as we can find for
the existence of a few altars at Salisbury in addition to
those mentioned in the previous list which is taken from
the rubrick of 1445. It may be convenient to distinguish
these less certain instances by the use of roman» numerals.

.xx. Altare in capella sancte Anne.
That there should be a chapel and altar of St Anne
established later than the writing of the mid-fifteenth
century Pontifical is in itself likely enough. A constitution
of Abp. Arundel had made her festival a general holiday
in 1400 (Wilkins, Concilia, iii. 252), a bull of 1383 having
already announced this feast for England (iii. 178). It was
made generally de praecepto in 1622. It had been observed
earlier in Ireland, Constitutions of Dublin 1351 (2272. iii. 19).

sancte Anne is presupposed by the rubrick, Zrev. iii. 541.
But another rule in the next column says that those vespers
were to serve ‘ubi dedicata est ecclesia, vel capella, vel
altare in honore eiusdem. But where there was no such
church or chapel, the evensong was to be of St James,
with only a suffrage (‘ memoria’) of St Anne.
.Xxj De sancto Edmundo rege et martyre.
‘Fiat processio ad altare eiusdem' is the rubrick in
Proc. p. 160. Likewise Prev. iii. 1073 to the same effect,
but with the usual ‘sz habeatur, to qualify it. Nothing is
said of any image of this saint, but an allusion to the ‘rule
of St Edmund 22. C^ may imply that, if there were one, it
was to be censed.

Here the rubrick in Proc. 158 runs, ‘Eat processio ad

The rule in Brev. iii. 909 is not quite so decided: * Tunc

The Childermas rubrick in Brev. I. ccxxix. leaves it
doubtful whether such an altar existed at Salisbury. The
! R. Langford gave to this chantry a chalice, missal, two ‘tuallia,’
a frontal, two albs, two amices, with stoles and fanons (' fanulis?), a
chasuble, and a chest to hold them. He also built a dovecote in the
manor of Whadden for the prior of Ivychurch, the tenant, to endow the
Harvey Chantry at St Edward's altar; and in 1472—3 a mass *pro
anima Edwardi regis’ was appointed among the missae currentes.

impression left on my mind by the words ' Tunc eat pro-
cessio Puerorum ad altare Innocentium, vel Sancte Trint-
tatis, cum capis sericis, &c. is, that altar No. 2, or ‘Salve’
altar, was here used, but that in some other churches there
was a special * a/tare Innocentium. * It is however remark-
able that even the printed Processtonale, p. 17, says nothing
of any altar in this case, excepting ' altare Sancte Trinttatis
et Omnium Sanctorum, quod dicitur Salve’ (the edition of
1517 omitting these three last words).
xxiii. Alfare parochiale.
Which altar answered this description I cannot say. It
is mentioned in the Osmund Register 1. p. 12, in the order
of the Treasurer’s duties, that he is to provide bread, wine,
water, and candles, for all altars in the Cathedral Church
excepting the one which belongs to the parish’.
Xxv. Altare matutinum, and
xxvj. <Altare Spiritus Sancti (cf. No. 14, p. 201) :—
These are mentioned as being near each other and
apparently in or near the choir. For it is said of William
de la Corner, Bp, who died in 1291, that ‘in medio chori
sepultus est inter altare matutinum et altare Spiritus
Sancti’ (Sarum Register), or, as Price says, ‘in the middle
of the choir, nearly under the eagle.’ Jones, Fasti, p. 9r.
The “morning altar” in 1387 was attended by one of
the six principal Altarists (Dunham Reg. p. 7, Jones, Fasti,
p.237) Hence we may say, negatively, that it was neither
St Martin's, St Katharine's, St John's, St Lawrence's, or
that of the Holy Trinity (*.Sa/ve'), Nos. 3, 4, ?19, 12 and 6.
There was an order that, after the daily * missa in aurora
diei, stipendiary priests should celebrate ‘continue et
successive' (the Vicars Choral being meanwhile occupied
with their canonical 'vigilie nocturne’) * usque ad missam
beate Virginis, —S/a/uta, p. 73 (= A.D. 1319 cap. 43).
The plan of 1733 marks St Osmund's plain tomb in
the very centre of the Lady Chapel. But the resting-place
is said to be ‘inter capellam de Sa/ve et sancti Stephani, id
est in tertio arcu ab altari matutinali’ (Ms. Fast?) This
might seem to identify the ' Morning Altar' with the eastern-
most altar in the cathedral, viz. Holy ‘lrinity and All
Saints, otherwise called ‘Sa/ve’ in the Chapel of the Blessed
Virgin. If these authorities are speaking of one and the
same state of things, we must conclude that the Altar of
the Holy Ghost was westward of the choir, which perhaps
would be convenient for Synods, Ordinations, &c.
| Cf. Lincoln Cath. Statutes, tom. M. part 1, pp. Ixix 4. Ixxiii 4.
ON THE SITES OF THE ALTARS. 205
But how can we account for the altarist of the Holy
Trinity avd the altarist of the Morning Altar if these
altars were at that date one and the same? I think it just
possible that when the High Altar stood further west than
it does at present, there was a morning altar to the east
of the then High Altar.
(F),(G). The Chantry of Walter Ld Hungerford was
‘built in honour of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin,
for two chaplains, within the second arch from the belfry
on the north part of the body of the church westward.’
See his will, 1 July, 1449. Nicolas, Zestamenta Vetusta,
P. 257. It was removed, by the Earl of Radnor, in 1778.
I must pass over the altars named at the bottom of my
list. Their existence is not attested by the orders for
washing the altars in or about 1445—70, but we have more
or less evidence (in some cases, I believe, insufficient
evidence) of their existence. Dates which I enclose in
parentheses are the earliest mention which I have found of
the altars or other items in each case ; some, as you will
have seen, are earlier than Salisbury Cathedral, ze, while
it was in embryo, and possibly may represent what there
was at Old Sarum. This is hardly proved. But if it were
so, we might certainly conclude that Salisbury in part
reproduced Old Sarum Church in material parts or fittings,
as well as in the fit framing together of its personnel (by
Bishop Poore, as well as by Osmund ; by Moberly, as
well as by Hamilton), that epicEoregza?, or continuity and
solidarity of duties, services, and offices, contributed,
“ministered, and built up," as in one body, of society as
well as of fabric, by that which every member and joint
supplies, from choir boy to precentor: from bell-ringer—
nay, rather let me say, from child and mother at the parish
altar—to the Bishop sitting on his throne, or standing
otherwhiles, or kneeling, as a canon among his brethren,
at the Holy Table, if not immediately beneath the painted
image of our Lord in glory, yet at least within the sight of
the Divine Majesty in heavenly places. Thus both he and
they combine to illustrate that fulness and that unity in
service which was so dear to Dr Benson, the late Arch-
bishop of Canterbury, and which was brought out so clearly
by him when first he was a canon at Lincoln, and after-
wards when he was a bishop at Truro, in his idea of the
ideal cathedral church and the cathedral body, and which
was by him presented, in a form so real and living, alike in
his ministry and his administration.

206 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
NOTE ON THE ALTARS IN SALISBURY CATHEDRAL.
THE fullest list of the altars in the Cathedral Church is supplied
by the rubricks of Maundy Thursday.
In the protestant Thomas Becon's Potation for Lent (1542) he
makes * Exsedius,’ one of his interlocutors, ask, * What meaneth the
washing of the altars on Maundy Thursday at afternoon?’ and
Philemon replies, ‘There are divers answers made unto it, as we
read: but I think it is done to put us in remembrance how Christ
washed his disciples feet! Early Writings, p. 116. The same
writer in a later work (Catechism, part v. p. 297) in 1560 says: ‘ Their
altar and superaltare likewise must be consecrate, have prints and
characters made therein, washed with oil, wine, and water, be covered
with a cloth of hair, and be garnished with fine white linen cloths and
other costly apparel.'
The ordinary printed Processionals in the Maundy Thursday give
an order of altars convenient for parish churches as follows :—
A majore altari incipientes, p. 59 (eg. W. G. Henderson).
Ad altare Sanctissime Trinitatis, p. 60.
Ad altare sancti Michaelis ceterorumque angelorum, p. 61.
Ad altare sanctorum apostolorum.
Ad altare sanctorum martyrum, p. 62.
Ad altare sanctorum confessorum.
Ad altare sanctarum virginum.
Ad superaltare in vestibulo, p. 63.
The altars are left uncovered till Easter Eve. After the washing
of Altars they enter the Chapter House for the Gospel (St John xiii.),
Sermon and Lavipedium!.
But in our manuscript (pp. 73-9) the order for visiting the altars
in the Cathedral Church itself (about 1445) is given as follows :
Post prandium veniant clerici ad altaria abluenda: sed in primis
benedicatur aqua more dominicali ad altare sancti Nicholai pri-
uatim.... [This I take to be the altar wearest the Vestry.] Et

Here probably there was an image of the Blessed Virgin, as there
had been at Old Sarum, where Herbert, prebendary of Bedwin in
1179, provided a light (mortlarium) by night, ‘juxta magnum altare
ante imaginem sancte Marie.’ Osmund Register, 1. 252.
2. ad altare sancti Osmund;.
This was probably founded soon after his canonization in 1456,
and it is an insertion in the MS., the bulk of which I suppose to have
been written in 1445. The entry, with that of All Hallows, no. 6^
below, is sZigA/y later than the original text. See p. 74.
However, there is some reason to think that St Osmund’s a//ar
was on the north-west (or north centre) of the Lady Chapel, for such
Leland tells us was the position of the chantry founded by Ld Rodert
Hungerford. And by his will 22 Apr. 1459 (he died 18 May) he
elects to be buried (not in the Hungerford Chantry of the Annunciation
then in N. of the nave) but *before the altar of St Osmund, Bishop
and Confessor. Nicolas, Zes/amenía Vetusta, p. 294.

It is said of St Osmund (who died in 1099, and whose remains
were translated from Old Sarum to New Salisbury Cathedral, 14 June,
1226), ' jacet inter (? infra) capellam de Sa/ve et sancti Stephani: [id
est in tertio arcu ab altari matutinali]? [Ms. Fas/é in Sarum Muni-
ment Room.] This points to the east end of the sow/A aisle, in or
near the Lady Chapel. The words in brackets however dclong really
to the next entry relating to his Bp Roger, as may be seen in any
earlier transcript.
‘St Osmund's night,’ ‘even,’ or ‘watch,’ was kept by all occu- —
pations at Salisbury in 1521. It was to be attended by all citizens in
1524, 1526, and 1530. Benson and Hatcher, Wiltshire, pp. 215—6.
On June 7th, 1537, the Mayor and citizens, seeing that St Osmund's
Day was abolished (so far as general holiday-making was concerned),
petition Bp Shaxton to know his pleasure about keeping or not keep-
ing the customary ‘watch’ on the preceding night, pp. 237—8. The
St Osmund's Eve Watch appears to have been kept in 1539 and until
the pageant was abolished at a meeting held to July, 1545. (1:2.

However, in his Injunctions to his Diocese printed for the Arch-
deaconry of Dorset in 1538, and throughout his diocese, nO. 14, directs

MS. Processtonale, 148, fo. 29*, lower margin. This insertion
suggests the idea that an altar of All Hallows was introduced into
the Cathedral at Salisbury after 1445. There was an altar of All
Hallows here or in Old Sarum to which 2 cruets, given cir. 1190, by
John the Succentor, were assigned. See above, p. 180.
In earlier times no. 6 had included this dedication. From its
lace in the margin of the Ms. Processtonale it may be intended for
insertion anywhere between St Martin and St Nicholas, nos. 3— 10,
but its old connexion with no. 6 makes that place a not improbable
one, and I suppose that the altars of All Hallows and of St Osmund
were against two pillars in the Lady Chapel}.

At first sight it would seem that St Nicholas! altar was on the
opposite side of the choir to that of St Stephen, but I suppose we
may rather take this direction to mean that the Deacons, instead of
going due east from the S.E. transept up the side aisle of the choir,
are to make something more of a procession by going straight on
in the line of the transept northward from the vestry door, and to
cross the choir before turning eastward, and so to compass the north
and east of the choir, passing the altars of St Martin, St Peter, and
Salve (Trinity) on their way to St Stephen’s.
It will be remembered that this was the altar (possibly at Salis-
bury, as elsewhere, ‘in vestibulo" Proc. p. 59), where the holy water
had been blessed, Jrrvatim, for the altar-washing. See the account

The chantry of R. de Hertford (or Wodeford), Dean, who died
9 Feb. 1257—8 was at St Andrew’s altar ('Ordinatio cantarie ad
altare beati Andree per Ro. de Hertford decanum Sar.’ is cited, Jones,
Fasti, p. 312), and printed in Osmund Reg. 1. pp. 390, 391. Bp
J. Chandler, of Lincoln, 1471, founded a chantry here in 1448.
15. Ettunc ad altare SS. Georgii et Dionisii. (? North of nave.)
Was this also in the nave? A municipal Gild of St George was
founded at Salisbury 26 Aug. 1306. Benson and Hatcher, Wiltshire,
p. 79. St George's feast was the only pageant, besides the Mayor's
Feast, retained at Salisbury in 1522. In 1524 nothing was observed
of it, except that ‘the Stewards keep the habit and mass of old
accustomed, and make the light and bring it to the church, and
choose new Stewards,’ p. 215.

16. Deinde ad altare Sancte Crucis, quod dicitur alfare Fabrice.
The altar of Holy Cross. Osmund Register, 1. 252. There had
been an altar with this dedication in Old Sarum cathedral, before
which Herbert, prebendary of Bedwin, provided a light (sortartum)
in 1179. Probably it was in the nave of Salisbury Cathedral near the
Rood, or (N. of) the Cross where the procession made a station.
17. Tunc ad altare sanct: Thome martiris.
His image is also mentioned, Proc. p. 20. Brev. 1. ccxlv.
It appears from Osmund Register, 1. 141, that a missal, grail,
gospel book, pair of brass candlesticks, vestments, chair, &c. had
been provided for this altar before the new Cathedral was ready.
This I suppose was the most southerly of the three altars in the
great north transept of the church. Here were said the masses
Letabitur (unius martyris) and Czbauzt (de corpore Christi) in 1472— 3.
Here was the * Ethelyngton'! chantry, and that of J. Nuggs (cir. 1357).

The middle altar in the great north transept. This position is pro-
nounced certain in Brown's /iustrated Guide to Salisbury Cathedral,
1885, p. 33, and it agrees with the order here sketched out.
It is said of Bp Scammel himself, *sepultus jacet ex opposito
capell .Sa/ue ante altare reliquiarum. This Rich Jones thinks was
north of the Presbytery, near the spot where now stands the Audley
Chapel. Cf. Charter, p. 350: ‘Gualterus de la Wyle Episcopus

A note by Canon Jones in Brown's Z//ustrated Guide to Salisbury
Cathedral, 1885, p. 75, suggests that Bp Scammel's tomb is to the
N.E. On the other hand we are told that in Pat. 15, Edw. IV. p.
m. 7, is a grant ‘ Pro cantaria ad altare Reliquiarum vocata Kymers
Chantry.’ See Wilts. Arch. Mag. xii. 372. Browne Willis says that
Dean Kymer [d. 1463] “willed to be buried in the Cathedral in the
South Wall? Jones, Fasti, p. 317.
Rob. de Karevill, Treasurer, d. 1267, had his chantry ad altare
Religuiarum.
1 For the list of ‘ Relykes’ at Salisbury see pp. 33—40, above.
Roger de Brinkworth, cir. 1220 —25, gave an endowment for ‘ unum cereum
ardentem coram reliquiis in festivis diebus ad servitium in eadem ecclesia.’
Osmund Register, 1. 234. Relicks were carried in procession on a ‘ feretrum,’
ibid. 1. 120, 122.
ON THE SITES OF THE ALTARS. 213
At the Relicks altar in 1472—3 were two masses ‘ Edyngton, le
secund’ probably W. of Edyndon, Bp of Winton, who died in 1366,
and had held the preb. of Netheravon 1344—6. His obit was ob-
served at Salisbury on Oct. 11th (Jones, Fasti, 404).
It is said of Walter Scammel, Bp, who died in 1286, that he was
buried ‘ex opposito capelle Salue, ante altare Reliquiarum.' (Sarum
Register.) Also that he founded a chantry for a daily Mass for the
Dead ‘in altari sancti Edmundi confessoris, (Jones, Fastz,
312.) This last he places on his plan (as no. Io) in the middle of the
reat North Transept. Elsewhere Canon Jones (2d¢d. p. 91) expresses
is opinion that this was ‘on the north side of the Presbytery, near
the spot where now stands the “ Audley Chapel."'
Bp William of York doubled the number of lights in the cathedral,
25 Sept. 1254. Sarum Charters, p. 323. He was buried ‘near the
altar of St John on the south side of the choir.’ (Notes on the Oxford
edition of Godwin.)
On the other hand we read (Jones, Fas?t, pp. 88, 89), that William
of York was buried i in 1256 ‘ad altare sancti Johannis coram altaret
Apostolorum! or ‘on the south side of the chancel near St John's
altar, under a gilt tomb' ; and on the supposition that *St John's?
means St John Baptist, and is therefore the same as the altar of
Relicks, we may say that the site opposite the altar of St Peter and
the Apostles at the east end of the north aisle may be assigned to it.
But how can this be * coram altari Apostolorum! Ze. the N.E. altar,
and yet ‘on the S. side of the chancel?’
That there was, at least originally, no altar of St John the
Evangelist at Salisbury seems plain, for his procession was made
‘ad altare Apostolorum’ (commonly known as St Peter's), and there
St John's image was to be censed. See Brev. 1. ccxiii, ccxiv. Proc.
16. However, an altarist of St John Evangelist is said to have
existed in 1387. (Dunham Reg. 7.)
Through Mr Frere’s kindness, I am able to show, by reference to
both his volumes on the Sarum Use, on what pages in the “ Ordinale”

ON SOME LISTS OF THE CHAPELS.
Three or four attempts were made in former genera-
tions to enumerate and identify the ancient chapels at
Salisbury.
I. William Dodsworth’, verger of the Cathedral, in
his Historical Account of the Episcopal See and Cathedral
Church of Salisbury (1814), in which he was principally
assisted by Mr Hatcher, gives the following statements :—
*On the 4th of the calends of October, namely the
Vigil of Saint Michael, which happened on a Sunday
[28th Sept. 1225], the Bishop [Ric. Poore] came in the
morning, and consecrated three altars.
The first, in the east part, in honour of the holy and
undivided Trinity and All Saints, on which thenceforward
the mass of the blessed Virgin was to be sung every day....
He then dedicated another altar, in the north part of
the church, in honour of St Peter, the prince of the
Apostles ; ;
and a third, in the south part, in honour of St Stephen,
the proto-martyr, and the rest of the martyrs." (p. 118.)
To so much of Dodsworth’s account, as it is founded
upon W. de Wanda's contemporary record, no exception
can be taken. The sites of these three altars are numbered
6, 5, 8 in our diagram. Dodsworth continues the subject
in a later section of his work, viz. at p. 168:
* Besides the three altars originally consecrated by
bishop Poor, others were added at different times, namely
those of
St Martin,
St Mary Magdalen,
St Thomas the Martyr,
St Edmund,
! [n a smaller Guide to the Cathedral Church of Salisbury, 8vo.
Salisbury, 1792, Mr Dodsworth had given the substance of this para-
graph (on p. 9), but I do not find what follows here (1814) in that
slighter work. That the larger Historical Account of the Episcopal
See and Cathedral Church of Salisbury was ‘in reality written by
Mr Hatcher,’ for Dodsworth, is distinctly stated (probably by Hatcher
himself) in an Account of Salisbury, 1834, p. 32 #. There is also
however (‘Cathedral Antiquities, Part I." a History and Antiquities
of Salisbury Cathedral, printed likewise in 1814, in quarto form, on
which the name of “J. Britton, F.S.A.” appears on the original cover.
And there fhe same [251 of altars appears on p. 83, with just one verbal
difference, which is indicated [in square brackets| on my next page.
218 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
* St Andrew,
St Anne’, and [one called’ (add. J. Britton)]
the Morning Altar.
Also those of
the Holy Relics, founded by bishop Waltham,
and of the blessed Virgin,
St Dionysius and St Lawrence by John Thatten® in
1433.
* At these altars the following chantries were estab-
lished, that of
Bp Bridport, in 1263, at the altar of St Mary Magda-
lene.
Bp Longspee [11297] at the altar of St Stephen.
Henry Blundesdon, in 1335, at the altar of St Thomas
the Martyr.
Roger and John Clown, before 1390.
Bp Chandler, in 1394, at the altar of St Andrew.
Robert de Carwyle, canon and treasurer [11267], at the
altar of the Holy Relics.
Bp Metford, about 1406 [11407],
and finally the Hulse Chantry, which was founded
between 1430 and the Reformation." (zd:d. p. 168.)
Although Dodsworth (or Hatcher, who supplied his
information from the records) refers to our MS. 148 on
the very next ensuing page (pp. 168—169), he has omitted
to make use of the information which it would have
supplied in this matter. Thus he fails to notice the exist-
ence of six or seven of the altars; viz. those of St Nicholas,
St Katherine, All Hallows, St Margaret, St Michael, St
Osmund and Holy Rood (the fabrick or works’ altar).
Nor does he mention that the altar of Holy Relicks was
also known as the altar of St John the Baptist, or that
St George’s name was associated with that of St Denys.
On the other hand, nothing is said in our MS. of any altar
of St Anne (though there was a chapel in her honour in
1354); nor is the ‘Morning Altar’ mentioned by name.
2. In 1753 Mr Francis Price, Clerk of the Works,
published by subscription a Series of Observations on the
Cathedral Church of Salisbury (4° Lond.) In 1774 an
abridgement was issued (likewise 4° Lond.) under the title
! Not the chapel over E. gate of the Close, for that was known as
the ** Chapel of B.V. Mary” at the end of the 14th cent.
3 * Thatten! is a misprint for Chitterne (possibly the Archdeacon
of Sarum, and Warden of De Vaux College, 1409, who died in 1419),
whose altar was founded in April 1434 (szc) * between the columns of
the nave. Harding Reg., fo. 105" and fo. xi.

of A Description of that Admirable Structure the Cathedral

which ts prefixed an Account of Old Sarum (pp.vi + 50 + 144).
In some Addzttonal Remarks, posthumously printed from
Price’s MS. pp. 138—139, a few of the Chapels are thus
mentioned by name:
“Osmund’s bones were removed to the new Cathedral,
and deposited in the middle of St Mary's, or our Lady's
chapel...behind the altar."
* Giles Brideport lies on the south of the choir, in Mary
Magdalen's chapel."
* Richard Meltford, or Mitford, lies in St Margaret's
chapel...supposed to be that which is next to the north-
east grand leg."
* Eastward of the choir door, in a very neat and
beautiful chapel, north of the altar, lies the body of
Edmund Audley, Bishop."
3. In 1798 the eminent Dr John Milner (Bp of Casta-
bala, z& partibus infidelium), the historian of Winchester
and author of * The end of Religious Controversy,’ severely
criticised Wyatt the architect in a Dissertation on the
Modern Style of Altering Ancient Cathedrals, as exempli-
fied in the Cathedral Church of Salsbury. In 1811 he
brought out a 2nd edition (4^, Winchester, with plates)!
He has the following note:
“The writer of this has had the fortune to ascertain the
names and situations of several chapels and altars, which
formerly existed in this Cathedral. Among these are
some of the chapels which have lately been destroyed.
(a) The first of the three chapels in the south portion
of the great or western transept (for Salisbury Cathedral
is built in the form of an archiepiscopal cross, with two
transepts or cross-aisles) was that of S¢ Mary Magdalen.
(Pb) The corresponding chapel, on the opposite or
northern side, was that of St Margaret ;
(c) adjoining to which was the chapel of St Edmund,
built by Bishop Walter de Wyvillet, and chosen by him for
his burial place. t [read “de la Wyle."]
(d) The first of the two chapels, in the south part of
the eastern transept, was dedicated to St John.
(e) There was an altar adjoining to the tomb of St
Osmund, in the Lady-Chapel, called of the Holy Relics, on
each side of which (probably where the Somerset and the
Gorges monuments now stand) were
(f) the chapels of St Stephen, and of
1 The Ist edition (1798), quarto, pp. 54. The 2nd (1811), quarto, pp. 39.
220 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
*(g) the Sa/vé, probably so called, because the anthem
of that name was, at certain times, solemnly sung there.
(£F) In the body of the church, under the third arch
from the tomb of Bishop Roger, was the altar called De
Missa Matutinali; where the early service was, every
morning, privately performed, immediately after the hold-
ing of chapter.
(?) Directly opposite to this was the altar of Zhe
Holy Ghost.
“These particulars are gathered from certain MS. notes,
contained in a copy of Godwin’s Catalogue of Bishops,
published in 1615, which notes seem to be coeval with the
book itself, now in the possession of the writer. The
author of these notes appears to have been a learned
member of Salisbury Cathedral, as he makes use both of
the church registers and of local tradition, and as his notes,
throughout the whole work, are chiefly confined to persons
who had been at some time dignitaries of this Cathedral."—
Bp J. Milner's Dissertation on the Modern Style of Altering
Ancient Cathedrals, ed. 2, 1811, pp. 8, 9 s.
Although I have not the annotated copy of Godwin
de Praesulibus before me!, I am inclined to think that the
notes were practically the same as those in the 18th
century Zas/; MS. or “Succession of Bishops, &c." which
was used by Canon Rich Jones in his Fasti Eccl Saris-
bertensts, 4^ 1879, and which quite possibly may have been
derived from the annotated Godwin.
Taking Milner's statements about these nine altars, I
will offer some remarks about each of them:
(2) St Mary Magdalen’s altar, in the great south-west
transept. Milner places this at No. 11 in our plan. But
the MS. (see Jones’ Faszi, p. 89), speaking of the burial
place of Bp Giles de Bridport, says simply “in capella
juxta altare Magdalene, in chori parte australi? Now it
is well known that this monument is in the south-ea57 aisle
(at no. 9), not the south-west, and the MS. will bear
that interpretation quite as well as that of Bp Milner,
which does not accord with the fact of Bp Giles de Bridport's
burial And St Mary Magdalen's chapel was described in
a document in the Salisbury Chapter muniments (3. 1.
Vicars Choral) 1 Sep. 1452, as being ‘ex parte australi
chori versus sacristiam, which agrees with my theory.
(6) St Margaret's chapel in the N.W. transept, as if
at no. I9 in our plan. Now it is said that Bp Ri. Mitford
was buried in this chapel (Fas£z, Jones, p. 96). But his
1 Through the kindness of Father Madan I am able to state that
the annotated Godwin at St Marie’s, Oscott, is not Bp Milner's authority.
OM
BISHOP J. MILNER'S THEORY. 22I
monument is on the south side, not on the north as Bp
Milner places it.
(c) St Edmund the Confessor's chapel, at no. 18 in
our plan. Here we are all agreed.
(4) St John's chapel, placed by Milner at no. 9, on
the south side of the choir. No altar of St John Zhe
Evangelist is mentioned in our Procession-book of 1445,
but the MS. Fast (see Jones, p. 89) records that Bp
William of York was buried, in 1256, *at the altar of
St John, before the Apostles’ altar.’ Now if the authorities
are right in their consensus that the altar of the Apostles
was on the N.E. of the Lady Chapel, I do not see how
Bp Milner's authority can rightly place St John's altar on
the south.
(e) He places the altar of the Holy Relicks near the
tomb of St Osmund in the Lady Chapel. The Ms. Fast
(see Jones, p. 90) tells us that Bp Walter Scammel was
buried, in 1286, ‘opposite Sa/ve chapel, before the Relicks
altar. As there is good authority for placing Salve
chapel, at our no. 6, in the extreme east end of the Lady
Chapel, it seems most natural to place this Relicks altar
either at no. 7 in our plan, or near letter D. There re-
mains however the statement of Francis Price, the learned
Clerk of the Works in 1753, that Bp Mitford was buried
near the great N.E. pillar (not far from 8 in our plan).
And this agrees with our Procession-book, which identifies
a Relicks altar with that of St John the Baptist.
(f) Bp Milners authority places St Stephen's altar
‘probably where the Somerset monument now stands,’ in
other words, at no. 8 in our diagram. In this all are
eed! :—
(zg) But the Sa/ve he places ‘probably where the
Gorges monument now stands’: ze. at no. 5 in our plan.
It is however perfectly plain from the Osmund Register
that the Salve was at no. 6 in the extreme east, and
St Peter and all Apostles’ altar further north (a farte
aqutlonart), although 2f we had nothing to go on beyond
the MS. Fastz (or Milner's annotated Godwin’), we might
have placed it S.E. But as a matter of fact we have still
earlier evidence that the sentence must bear a rather
different construction from that which Milner put upon it*.
| See Osmund Reg. ii. p. 39.
2 Quoted by Jones, Fast, p. 84, note *, but inaccurately, as the
latter half of his extract relates in the MS. not to St Osmund, but to his
successor Roger.
3 I may add that the Salve to which the name refers was most
probably the 4725s of our Lady, and not the Salve Regine antiphon.
The institution of the Lady Mass at this altar by Bp Poore is a well
established fact in our cathedral history.
222 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
(4) The Morrow Mass altar in the nave, in the third
arch from Bp Roger’s tomb. This would be near no. 15
in our plan, and here, I have no doubt, Bp Milner and his
authority are right. I need only observe that this fact
also is copied in one of our later 75/7 MSS., but Canon
Jones, mistaking the scribe’s use of stops or brackets, has
recorded it in the former instead of the latter note on
p. 84 in his printed Fas£z. See my 2nd footnote on p. 221.
(2 The altar of the Holy Ghost, at no. 14 in our
diagram, opposite the Morrow Mass altar, in the nave.
Here again we are agreed. I may add that here also we
have a mention of this altar in the Ms. Fast: (cf. Rich Jones’
Fasti, p. 91, who cites this MS. as ‘the Register’ sore
suo, see pp. 88, 89, #.), where it is stated that Bp W. de la
Corner was buried in 1289 “i the midst of the choir be-
tween the Morning altar and the altar of the Holy Ghost."
Unfortunately, however, Canon Rich Jones overlooked the
fact that the words which we print in italics were struck out
by the scribe, and altered in the margin to “ the nave of the
church."
Thus we may observe in conclusion that in every one
of the instances concerning altars cited by Dr Milner from
his annotated Godwin, statements are contained also in the
MS. Fasti still at Salisbury, but that the interpretation,
or gloss, which he puts upon some of them is at variance
with some other evidence which has now been brought to
light. Consequently I have ventured to give another con-
struction and interpretation, of which the notes in the
Fasti appear to me equally capable.
There is another test which may be applied to Bp
Milner’s identification of nine altars. Let the names
which he considers to be certain be assigned to those sites
in the plan which he ascribes to them. Then follow out
the directions of our Procession-book (pp. 73—8) for
visitation and washing of the altars on Maundy Thursday.
It will be found that such sites as he gives are absolutely
incompatible with any orderly circuit of the church.
4. In Benson and Hatcher's Hestory of Salisbury
(fol., 1843) a list is given (p. 25) of altars supposed by
the editors to have existed in the earlier Cathedral Church
at Old Sarum:

THEORIES OF BENSON AND RICH JONES. 223
“ St Nicholas, and
St Mary Magdalen.
In times subsequent to Osmund, was one to
St Thomas the Martyr.
Mention is also made of a private Chapel, belonging to the
Bishop.”
It is obvious that this list is derived from the Treasurer's
Inventories in the so-called ‘Osmund Register, fol. 85, 86,
where the names occur in this order. But there is good
reason to think that the latter leaf refers (if not exclusively)
at least as much to the preparations for New Sarum, as to
the arrangement of the older church; and the loss of folios
87—8 of the register leaves us free to suppose that we
have only a fragmentary inventory remaining".
1 Canon W. H. Rich Jones’ note (Osmund Reg., Rolls Series,
1884, ii. p. 141 #.) as to other altars at Salisbury is untrustworthy, so
far as it relies on the printed Processionals, which provide a general
scheme for parish churches as well as the cathedral, and so far as it
implies that the ‘altar of relics’ was distinct from that of St John
the Baptist. Canon Rich Jones is right in saying that the deed of
16 Nov. 1335 has the reading “ad altare Sci Edmundi regis” (not
episcopi).

Corpore Christi, privileged by Urban V. See Missale Sar. pp. 455,
746*. (There is a different mass with the same import at p. 42.)
* | suppose this is Ralph of York, Chancellor 1288— 1309, though
he had two predecessors, named Ralph, dying cir. 1200 and 1274
respectively. The altar, not specified here, was probably that of
St Peter and Apostles. The above list is entered in ' M?sce//anea ef
Statuta’ in an early xvith century hand, but is a transcript of an earlier
list bearing date * 10 Kal. Feb. (Jan. 23) 1473.”
We might have expected at that time some notice of a chantry of
John Chadworth, Bp of Lincoln (formerly preb. and Archd. of Wilts.),
who had died 23 Nov. 1471, and who had obtained permission many
years before (27 July, 1448) to found a chantry with one chaplain ‘7
ecclesia matrici Sarum’ (Burgh Reg., p. 18). Also there is no notice
taken here of either of the Hungerford | Chantries, which Lady Margaret
Hungerford and Botreux had founded at Salisbury under a patent
dated in the Chapter House, 1 May, 1472 (12* Ed. IV.).
W. S. C. I$
226 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
It will be seen that there are only to altars mentioned
for celebration of these 19 mzssae currentes, relating to
I3 chantries, and 2 special votive masses, appointed to be
said regularly in Salisbury Cathedral Church in 1473.
The 10 altars are those of (St Peter and) the Apostles,
St Edward, St Katharine (g#ater), St Laurence, St Mar-
garet (4s), St Martin, B. Mary, the Relicks (és), St
Stephen, and St Thomas (67s). For the last mass on the
list no altar is specified, but I think it was St Peter's and
Apostles’. It may be questioned whether by “ a//are beate
Marte" is meant the altar of the Most Holy Trinity in the
Lady Chapel or (as I think more probable) the high altar,
which had the title of the Assumption of B. Mary, as
likewise had the altar, or (at least) the chapel, of the
Audley chantry at a /ater date. Or again it may be
suggested that a secondary side altar of the Blessed Virgin
had been added, with some such title as “our Lady of
Grace," or “of the Pew" (ie. Pity), But for such a con-
jecture I can bring forward no evidence, unless what we
shall have to say presently about our Lady “in Gesem, or
Jesaianum," may be considered as in point. There was, no
doubt, an altar of the Annunciation, connected with Walter
Lord Hungerford's chantry. It seems less probable that
* B. Marie" here means St Mary Magdalen, as the title is
plainly applied to our Lady, absolutely, in the next line of
the document. |
Mr Malden has sent me, among other notes which I am
freely using, a few additional fourteenth and fifteenth century
lists of weekly or daily masses, of rather earlier date.

THE OBIT KALENDAR. 229
AN OBIT KALENDAR
OF
SALISBURY CATHEDRAL CHURCH,
CIR. 1420— 950.
We owe to Mr A. R. Malden a transcript of the xvth
century Ms. of the Obit List of Salisbury Cathedral!, as it
appears prefixed to a late X1vth century copy of Salisbury
Statutes and Miscellanea usually known as “the Bishop's
copy of the Statutes.” It is perhaps the same volume as
that which Seth Ward in his * /Vozz/ta ' described as “a black
book, belonging to the Dean." There is also a XVIIth cen-
tury transcript of it in the book called * Constitutions, &c."
in the Cathedral Muniment Room (Press II. cupboard 3,
supra).
The earliest obit which I have identified in the list is
that of St Osmund, 4 Dec. 1099; and the latest Bishop of
Salisbury who is named there is Ro. Hallum, who died at
the Council of Constance, 3 Sept. 1417. His successor
J. Chandler, who died 16 July, 1426, is not commemorated.
One or two rather later obits, such as S. Sydenham, Bp of
Chichester, 30 Jan. 1438, Cardinal Beaufort, 12 Apr. 1447,
and Walter Lord Hungerford, 8 Aug. 1449, were added
! Mr Malden traces the handwriting of this Obit List elsewhere down to
October 1451. He observes that the occurrence of St David at March ist
seems to show that the Kalendar was written, in all probability, subsequently
to the introduction of some new feasts, of which the Treasurer complained, cir.
1453, as adding to his statutable liabilities (Burgh Reg. p. 53).
230 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
probably some years after the book was finished, and we
need not doubt that it was practically completed some
time before the establishment of Ri. Beauchamp’s obit in
1481. Otherwise some notice must surely have been taken
of it. The names of N. Upton (July 21st) and W. Ingram
(Sept. 27th) occur, as those of men living at the time.
The former (a heraldic writer of some repute) was pre-
centor in 1446—57, the latter died in 1464. The entry
‘Cicestre’ appearing as a marginal addition at Feb. 19th,
probably refers to T. Circester, preb. of Lyme, a benefactor
to the Cathedral Library, who died in 1453. On the
supposition that his death occurred shortly after the list
was first written, we may date it in its original state as
about 1446—52. The kalendar of festivals to which
double commons are assigned evidently was of earlier
origin than the middle of the xvth century ; or St Anne's
day which was instituted with triple invitatory in 1383
would surely have been noted on July 26th. Similarly
in the memorial lines, showing the order in which Saints'
Days occur in each month, we find here no notice taken of
such day as the Transfiguration, Holy Name, St Winifred
and St Osmund, which were all fully established in the
last quarter of the fifteenth century. St Anne (July 26th)
is mentioned in the memorial lines at the foot of page 237,
although not in the kalendar itself.

1 W. de Salton, preb. of Yatesbury, and of Combe and Hurnham, 1320— 54.
* Possibly one of the Barons Fitz-payne (who died respectively cir. 1220, 1315,
1354, 1570) 4 here intended.
3 The learned and famous Bishop of Chartres, who was born at Old Sarum, is said
to have died on 25th Oct. in 1182, so he can hardly, I suppose, bethe John of Salisbury
here commemorated.

! Cardinal Beaufort had been preb. of Horton, 1397, but was succeeded in that
stall (possibly in 1404) by Nic. Daniel, who died in 1424.
* Elias Derham or Durham, preb. of Lavington and Pottern, cir. 1226, was
a great friend of Bp Poore and accompanied him to Durham. He built Leadenhall
(audam plumbeam) in the Close at Salisbury, and is said to have been architect of the
Cathedral church. See Osmund Reg. i. 330, 339; ii. 22, 25, 26, 44, 60, 63, 108.

1 Rich Jones in his Fast¢z gives the name as ‘ Beauner,' prebendary of Chute and
Chisenbury. Mr Malden thinks the name as written in Ms. may be read as ‘ Beaueir.’
2 St Erasmus does not find a place in the service books and authoritative kalendar
of Sarum use, though he occurs in Z/erae, and was a popular saint. His cu//tes came
up cir. 1485-90. See H. Bradshaw's Collected Papers, p. 429, and a curious note on
the various spellings (about 30 varieties in 64 entries in a Churchwardens' Book at
Cambridge, cir. 1504-30) of the name of St Erasmus, did. pp. 350—3. His life was
not included in the first edition of Caxton's Golden Leyend (1483), but was printed
as a supplement in 1487. See Zemple Classics reprint, vii. 267—73.

* Rich Jones identifies this subdean with Nicholas de * Wyke,’ i.e. Wyle, 1341.
Would not A. de Laking, cir. 1260, be more probably intended? XN. de Wyle's obit
was in September.
3 The Zestum Reliquiarum at Salisbury was the Sunday falling between July 7th
and 15th both exclusive. Perhaps the lines which stand against July 9th and rith
in this kalendar are intended to be read as an insertion in the entry against July roth,
as follows:—* Obitus Johannis Nugge (Mediumque festum reliquiarum ’ iz. the central
day on which it can fall) de x s. pro fabrica, inter canonicos persolut. prosiden.'
(? personaliter processioni presentibus) *iiij s.; vicario j d. Sint duplicis commune

4 A chantry of ‘J. Nugys,’ at altar of St Thomas M., 28 Mar. 1357.
5 A mass for the soul of W. Teyntrell was said at St Margaret's altar in 1472.
$ The obit of Ric. de Netheraven, who died in 1350, appears to have been
transferred to July 23rd from Lady Day, which was the time of his actual demise.

1 The accounts of the Clerk of the Works in 1464 gives Aug. 3rd for Aylesward's
obit. In our Ms. it is entered in red ink. ‘The reader may observe that the Nova
Festa of the Transfiguration and the Most Holy Name (instituted in 14386 and
cir. 1490) find no recognition here on Aug. 6th and 7th as ‘Duplex Communa.’

5 J. Holtby was the first Warden of the College of St Nicholas de Valle.
7 The mention of St Donatus ‘qui fractum calicem orando restituit" is noticeable
in these memorial lines. His name appears on Aug. 7th (now occupied by the Holy
Name) in the breviary kalendar of 1519, 1526 and the Enchiridion of 1530, but not in
the Sarum services themselves.

* The Accounts of the Clerk of the Works in 1464 and 1474 give the sorrow
of St Lambert for Waltham's obit.
3 Rich Jones gives Sept. 20th as the actual day of Bp Walter Scammel's decease,
Fasti Sarisb. That is the date given by Leland for Marty.
* Roger Clown appears as a canon residentiary, cir. 1350, Hutchins’ Dorset, iv. 447.
5 Mr Malden observes that W. Ingram was canon of Salisbury 1427-1463, and
that the Ms. was probably written about that time, when he was living at Salisbury in
the episcopate of Bp Beauchamp. He appears to have been a residentiary, and held
the office of Communar in 1456.
5 See above, p. 11. Leland's excerpts from the Old Martyloge tell us under the
month of September that * Nova Ecclesia Sarum dedicata fuit A. D. 1258 a Bonifacio

11 Oct. as * Obitus Roberti Wyville episcopi Sarum," A.D. 1375. le is said to have
died 14th Sept., but that was occupied by Holy Cross Day.
3 The xviith century transcript has '*?5» festo Marie Virg." The reference of

* P. ‘de Gromville’ preb. of Bedminster and Redcliffe. Fast Sarish. p. 361.
5 Geoffrey Milbourne was a canon residentiary.
$ The reader will observe in these memorial lines the name of St Pelagia, which
does not occur in Sarum service (not even in the Litany), but is commemorated
in York use on Oct. 8th, and in Roman books.

eminent successors Ralph Hecham or Hegham (who died in 1274) may be the one
here intended. ‘Stok commons’ must refer to lands at Laverstock on the property
of the *communa' of the Church of Sarum.
3 The reader may notice that St Winifred, whose festival was prescribed for
Nov. 3rd in 1415, is not noticed in these lines.

case of Bp Roger’s obit, a week later. It will be noticed that this list still treats this

advanced till 1456. See A. R. Malden’s Canonization of St Osmund.

There is a curious story told in Dodsworth’s Salisbury Cathedral,
fol., 1814, pp. 176—7, of the discovery in 1762, in the capstone of the
‘spire, of a leaden reliquary containing a box of wood with a piece of
silk, or fine linen, ‘supposed to be some relic of the Virgin Mary.’
Quite recently an undoubted 12th or 13th century reliquary has
been discovered—not indeed in the city, but in the diocese of Sarum—
in situ, in the north transept of the church of St Cross and St White,
Whitchurch Canonicorum, Dorset. This reliquary, which was laid
open through a settlement in the foundations, contains bones of
St White, or Candida (part of whose bones were also preserved at
Lincoln Minster), with the inscription “* Hic requiescunt reliquie
sancte Wite” on the leaden case, which is 2 ft. 5 inches in length.

Pp. 44—46] *" GENERALIS SENTENTIA EXCOMMUNICATIONIS,
quater in anno in singulis Cathedralibus publicanda: ordinata in
onvocatione Cleri, anno Domini 1434."
As concerns the later history of the Commination, we may notice
the following Article of Visitation promulgated by Abp Edmund
Grindal for the province of Canterbury in 1576, shortly before his
sequestration. He enquires
*3. Whether the form of Commination against sinners, with
certain prayers following the same, set forth, in the latter end of the
Book off Common Prayer, to be used at divers times in the year, be by
your Minister plainly and distinctly read in your Church or Chapel
unto the People, between the Litany and the Commemoration or
Ministration of the Holy Communion, three times at least in the year,
that is to say, for order sake, yearly
_ upon one of the three! Sundays next before Easter, for the first
time ;
upon one of the two Sundays next before the feast of Pentecost, for
the second time;

and, for the third time, upon one of the two Sundays next before
the feast of the Birth of our Lord,
over and above the accustomed reading thereof upon the First Day
of Lent!.”
Five years earlier, while Grindal was Abp of York, he had issued
the like directions in a shorter form, and with the slight variation
mentioned in the note, in a Visitation begun 15th May, 1571, for “the
Commination to be read? three times a year besides Ashwednesday?."
Our present Commination Service was first issued in the Book
of Common Prayer of 1549. It will be remembered that a prominent
feature in it is the publication or reading of “the general sentences...
gathered out of the xxvii. chapter of Deuteronomie and other places of
the Scnpture?; but it may be observed that Nicholas Shaxton, Bp of
Salisbury, in his 7th Injunction for Dorset, ten or eleven years earlier
than K. Edward's First Book, in 1538, had directed that another
chapter of the same context, viz. “the 28th Chapiter of Deuteronomie,
be openly red in the Church every quarter, in stede of the General
Sentence‘.”
This order appears to have been the transition between the old
‘ Generalis Sententia, in our text, and the ‘Commination, or General
Sentences,’ of 1548—9.
The FORM OF EXCOMMUNICATION® included in the printed Sarum
MANUALE is not contained in most of the editions subsequent to 1529,
for instance in that class of Manuals which commonly comprises
168 leaves.
The form however appears in the earlier editions. I have, for
instance, noticed it in the following :—

3 Unfortunately Cardwell's earlier edition, in 1839, p. 335, had misread the
words **the Commination to be read,’’ as if it were ‘‘the Communion to be
received" : so that the purport of the York injunction was disguised, and thus
rhaps it may have escaped the notice of some students of our Prayer-Book
istory.

in Johnson's Ecc. Laws ii. 489—492, under the year 1430. The fraudulent
dealers used to buy from simple folk by ''Ze auncell, otherwise scheft, or
pounder,” but “to sell by lesser measure and weights called avoyr du poys,
otherwise lygeyng wygtys.” Auncel-weight was abolished by 25 Edw. III.
(1351) stat. 5, c. 9. It was contrary to the Divine Law (Deséeron. xxvi. 13,
and Prov. xi. 1, and to Magna Carta art. 25). According to the Laws of
Athelstan, A.D. 925 (cap. 9), it was in the jurisdiction of the Bishop to regulate
the weights and measures in his diocese. Johnson, Ecc. Laws i. p. 350.

SERVICE OF ST GABRIEL AND ST RAPHAEL (1443—56),
AND THE NEWLY ESTABLISHED FESTIVALS (1320—
1421).
Kalendar, 12 #.] The Feast of St Raphael (Oct. 5th) was
introduced at Salisbury by Bp Beauchamp’s order, 6 Aug. 1456. And
on the 29th April, 1452, the Treasurer ne Symondisburgh) com-
plained of the extra expenses to which he had been put by the intro-
duction of the new feasts of SS. David, Chad (1st and 2nd March), and
John of Beverley (7th May), the Translation of St Nicholas (9th May),
St Anne (26th July), St Crispin and Crispinian (25th Oct.), Winifred
(3rd Nov.) and Corpus Christi. It will have been observed that
several of these are latter additions in the kalendar of our procession-
boo
The festival of Corpus Christi, though decreed in 1264, needed to
be revived by the Council of Vienne, in 1312. In 1317 its observance
was required by Canon Law, in the Clementines. Father Bridgett
believes that it was introduced into England cir. 1320—25. See also
Tracts of Clement Maydeston, Introd. pp. xx., xxi. St Anne's festival
followed in 1383. Wilkins, Cone. iii. 179. SS. David, Chad and Winifred,
in 1415. ded. ii. 376. St John of Beverley, in 1416. The victory of
Agincourt (in 1415) doubtless brought into greater prominence ‘St
Crispin Crispian’ (although already distinguished at Salisbury in
Bp Poore's time, Osmmund Reg. fo. 12; Frere's Use of Sarum, i. p. 200)
along with St John of Beverley. See Abp Chicheley’s 2nd Constitution
of 1416. Wilkins, Conci/ia, iii. 379.
Mr Malden here supplies us with the documents in question.
It will be observed that mention is made also of a new Service of
St Gabriel composed by Edmund Lacy, Bp of Exeter about 1451—2.
In the Kalendar of the Parker Ms. 93 at Corpus Christi College,
Cambridge, which contains Bp J. de Grandison, Exeter Consuetudines,
Ordinale, et Martilogium, compiled by him in 1337, there is an entry
in the month of September, “ Prima feria ii. istius mensis fiat festum
sancti Gabrielis archangeli, maius duplex ; sez/icef post incepcionem
historie ‘Si bona!" Also at October 6th (ii. Non.) is an insertion
“ Sancti Raphaelis archangeli, Medium duplex lec." On fo. 95 (=fo.
72 in the copy at Exeter) is noted,
“In prima 2 feria, id est, primo die lune, mensis Septembris,
celebratur quotannis in ecclesia Exon. subsurccive duplex festum sancti
Gabrielis." The order of the service for the feast of St Gabriel in
Exeter Use is indicated in Legenda Exon. fo. 56, 56°.

dictionem.
Tunc iniunctum nobis a domino apostolice seruitutis officium digne
peragere credimus, dum ecclesiis quibuslibet, vt in illis vberius feruor
devocionis accrescat, apostolicos favores impertimur. Cum itaque,

ob singularem, quem ad sanctum Raphaelem Archangelum gerit,

cultus propagacionem ac decorem, et ad hoc, quod ipsius Archangeli
iugis et celebrior habeatur memoria, quoddam de eo decantandum
peragendumque composuit officium, et, quod festum eiusdem sancti
quinta die mensis Octobris, anno quolibet, in singulis vbi illud accep-
tum fuerit ecclesiis, celebretur, ac officium huiusmodi in primis et
secundis Vesperis, necnon in matutinis, et aliis canonicis horis eiusdem
diei peragatur et fiat propensius, exoptet apostolice desuper auctori-
tatis expressionis presidium. Nos igitur, pium eiusdem Episcopi

W. Booth, Abp of York, had adopted Bp Lacy’s Office of
St Raphael for York Minster, 10 Oct. 1454. And T. Spoffor, Bp of
Hereford, did the like at a still earlier date, 6 Sep. 1445. To both
cathedrals the Bp of Exeter had given red velvet copes and other
generous offerings. Lacy Reg. iii. fo. 486, cited by Ralph Barnes,

THE ORDER OF THE STALLS IN CHOIR AT SALISBURY.
(i) As to places in the Chapter House.
On p. 137 above we have given the present arrangement of the
Canons’ places in Chapter at Salisbury, which was drawn up at the
request of the late Dean Boyle with a view to the inscription of the
titles in the canopy work round the chamber, as has been done in the
Chapter-house at Wells. It seems a pity that the design should not
be completed by carving the names in the stone, or by affixing them
on tablets. They were painted up in 1856, but many peeled off in the
course of thirty years, and the decoration was then finally removed.
The arrangement of names in Chapter differed little from choir list
no. 1I. p. 271 below, “Grimston, Wilsford et Woodford....Ilfracombe
(olim Beere et Charminster), Pottern, 7hesaurarins” being placed on
the Soxth and “ Winterbourne Comitis (o//»! Rotesfen), Altaris pars
major, Highworth...Teinton, Uffculme, Cancellarius” on the North.
The places of honour opposite the door were these
Archd. Archd. De- Bishop. Pre- Archd. Archd.
cani centoris Berks.
Winterbourne Grimston
Comitis, &c. &c.
I doubt whether there had been any old authority for placing
Chancellor and Treasurer near the door of the Chapter-House:
I suspect that it arose from a false inference from their places (stad/a
ferminalia) in choir, which (it should be remembered) are near the
Throne and also near the Altar.
The order in chapter-meetings is we believe not strictly kept at
Salisbury, on account of acoustic difficulties, and for other reasons.
But the order of stalls in the Choir is a matter of more practical
interest, and it therefore may be well to give here a series of lists to
trace the history of the arrangement.
(it) As to the Order of Stalls in Choir.
Of the two lists given by Canon Rich Jones in his Fast: Ecc.
Sarisbertensis, 4to. 1879—81, pp. 200—202 and 242— 3, we have given
the one in a revised form from the Mss., with the substance of the
latter (or residence-table) incorporated with it, on pp. 129—132, and
the taxation-list of 1227 on p. 133 above.
We will now add three or four later lists, two of which we owe to
the kindness of Mr Malden.
I.
From a small Ms. book in Salisbury Cathedral Muniment-room
(Press iv. Box L) containing various memoranda ranging from 1526 to
about 1561. The contents nearly all relate to the Cathedral, and may
not improbably have been put together by some of the Vicars of the
cathedral church.
The list was subsequently transcribed by Dr Ric. Drake (editor of
Bp Andrewes’ Devotions), who was Chancellor of Salisbury in 1661—
81, and acted as /ocum tenens for Dean Pierce in 1675. The portion
of his MS. collection which has a copy of this document bears the title
* Collecta e Statutis Ecclesiae Sarum”
We have so far departed from the original as to place the Decani
list before the Cazoris list.

! From the inclusion of such names as Ogbourne, Sherborne, Loders and

K. Henry VIII.

when those prebends were exchanged.

There was no Dean in April 1675.
The Bishop was not summoned.
The Sub-dean (Ric. Kent) was prebendary Major pars Altaris.
The Archdeacons of Dorset and Berks, not holding prebends, were
not summoned.
The Archdeacons of Sarum and Wilts (Thomas Lambert and
Seth Ward the younger) held prebends at that date, viz. Grantham
Austral, and Combe.
The Succentor was not summoned (J. Stephens, who died soon
afterwards).
I1I.
The following list was printed in 1723 in the History and Antt-
guities of the Cathedral Church of Salisbury and the Abbey Church of
Bath, 8vo., which is attributed to Dr Rawlinson. It appears there on
pp. 105—6. It was reprinted in 1774 in the Description of that
admirable Structure the Cathedral Church of Salisbury (pp. 80,
81), 4to.
The list is of interest, as it shows what was considered to be the
proper arrangement of the choir before Wyatt made his alterations
about 1789.
I have merely made the obvious change of placing the Dean’s side
before the Chanter's, seeing that this order of dignity was not observed
by the earlier editors who placed ‘ Cantoris’ before * Decani It may
be fairly supposed to represent the arrangement of stalls about 1670—
1770.

* Axford was exchanged with Gillingham minor in 1546.
-1° Yetminster Secunda is omitted in this arrangement of Stalls. Having
been held in 1666— 1703 by the learned T. Hyde who had a stall of dignity as
Precentor, it came to be omitted.
11 The prebends of Upavon, Loders (Dorset) and Okeborne (or Ogborne,
near Marlborough), originally assigned to the Abbats of the alien monastic
houses of St Wandragesil, St Mary Montebergh, and Bec, in Normandy, were
alienated when alien monasteries were suppressed in England in 1414 or 1423.
18 Sherborne prebend was dissolved when the monasteries in England were
suppressed in 1534.
Altaris pars minor had been enjoyed by Ric. Kent in 1664—79. As he
had a more honourable position assigned him (next but one to the n), the
place of his prebendal stall was not marked.
! Horton prebend was dissolved in the time of K. Edward VI. and the
estates were granted to W. Duke of Somerset.

The present Stalls in the Choir at Salisbury were erected after
1870, much of the oaken work being antient, and Wyatt's canopies
have been removed.
The arrangement of the seats as described for me by my Brother
is as follows :

1 The present arrangement of these Canforts stalls has no claim to antiquity,
but is as follows:—Winterbourne Earls (o/2m Rotesfen), Calne, Major pars
altaris, Highworth, Grantham Boreal, Durnford, [gamgway] Fordington and
Worthington, Preston, Stratford, Gillingham minor (o/¢# Axford), Minor pars
altaris, Yetminster II., Warminster, [gaagway] Coombe and Harnham, Slape,
Hursbourne and Burbage, Stratton, Bitton, Gillingham major (0/7: Ramsbury),
Shipton.
j Canon Gordon, who has been Treasurer of Sarum since 1860, has always
occupied this place near the Dean, the late Archd. T. Sanctuary having
preferred the place nearly opposite the throne. In antient times the Archdeacon
of Dorset sat here. But his office was removed from this diocese from 1552 to
1836.
Em These eight stalls face eastward. The Sacrist (represented now by
Vergers) and Vice-chancellor have no place in the upper row of stalls.
The order of Precedence is as follows, as now in use:
I. Dean. 2. Precentor.
3. Chancellor. 4. Treasurer.
5, 6, 7. Archdeacons of Sarum, Wilts, and Dorset, according to personal
seniority.
8. Subdean (if a Canon and prebendary).
9. Succentor (if a Canon and prebendary).
The position of a Subdean or Succentor, should he chance not to be a
rebendary, is questionable. Perhaps he would rank with the Canons, accord-
ing to his personal seniority of appointment, only of course not above the four
Principales Personae or the Archdeacons. The Subdean was a very important
personage in the xi11th century.

1 On p. 274, in the passage marked as above, Psalms cix.—cl. ( ug.) are
reckoned as ‘'the last nocturs”’ of the Psalter of David, although their liturgical
use is Ps. cix.—cxxxii., cxxxiv.—cxli., cxliii.—cxlvii., for Evensong, partly on
Sunday, and partly other days throughout the week, Ps. cxxxiii. at Compline,
Ps. cxli. at Lauds on Friday, and Ps. cxlviii.—cl. at Lauds daily. It is
interesting to note that Cranmer, in his preface ** Concerning the Service of the
Church,” prefixed to the Book of Common Prayer of 1549, in one of the few
original passages, amid so much that he has merely translated from Cardinal
Quignonez, makes use of the same terminology as Bp Beauchamp uses:
whereby ¢he entire psalter (and not merely Ps. i.—cviii.) is considered as being
distributed into seven ** Nocturns.”

APPENDIX ON THE ALTARS AND CHAPELS
IN SALISBURY CATHEDRAL CHURCH.
The number of altars in the new Cathedral Church of Salisbury
was, as we have seen, considerable!. The foundation was laid 28th
April, 12207; and on the eve of Michaelmas, 28th Sept., 1225, Bp
Richard Poore dedicated the 77zuzty Altar in the Lady Chapel, and
two others near it?.
In 1258, in September, the church was completed sufficiently for
the ZgA Altar of the Assumption to be hallowed by Abp Boniface,
either on Michaelmas Day itself, or upon St Jerome's Day, the morrow
of St Michael. It is not unreasonable to suppose that the proceedings
occupied more than the single day‘. It was, I suppose, at the same
time that several other altars were dedicated, as there are piscinas and
aumbries apparently coeval with the original walls of the transepts.
The altar of St Andrew indeed seems to have been erected two years
earlier, in 1256: and preparations were made about 1222 for altars of
B. Nicholas and Mary Magdalene, and St Thomas of Canterbury in
the S.E. and N.W. transepts, respectively; and very probably some
others were mentioned on a couple of leaves which have been torn out
of the Osmund Register, besides those which Bp Poore dedicated in
1225. Osmund Reg. M. pp. 140, 141.
In 1267 Rob. de Karevile, Treasurer of Sarum, by his will left
*septem libras ad emendum .xiiii. phialas argenteas, ut quodlibet
altare duas habeat in ministerium in perpetuam mei memoriam.”
Sarum Charters, p. 343. This clearly implies that within a few years
after the High Altar had been dedicated there were no more than
seven altars. See above, p. 195.
1 See above, pp. 73—9, 185—223. In parish churches in England five
was (Mr Micklethwaite says) a common average number of altars. The small
churches which had no side aisles or transepts had a least a second and third
altar, right and left of the entrance of the chancel, outside the chancel screen.
In the Eastern Church there are sometimes additional altars attached, in what
are called 2arecc/esia (side churches) used for ferial commemorations. But
these, as a matter of principle, are walled off from the main church. Neale,
Eastern Church, pP. 183, 1203.
? * April 20th? in Brown's Gséde to Salisbury Cathedral, p. 9, is a mis-
print for April 28th. See Osmund Reg. 1I. p. 12.
3 Osmund Reg. 1. p. 37.
4 Sept. 29th, 1258, is the date given in Flores Histeriarwm. But Sept.
3oth was the annual Dedication Day, observed as an anniversary. See p. 11
(Kalendar).
278 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
We will now give some additional notes upon the various Salisbury
Cathedral Altars and Chantries in order.
(1) The High Altar which is dedicated in honour of the Assump-
tion of B. Mary. (See above, pp. 74, 206—7.)!
This dedication had been performed by Abp. Boniface ‘3 Kal.
Octob.’ i.e. 29 Sept. 1258. (Flores Historiarum, Rolls Series, iii. 249.)
The annual Dedication feast was observed 30 Sept. (Kalendar in Pro-
cessionale MS. 148 at Sarum, the volume from which we are deriving
our account of the aé/ucizo altarium)?.
The consuetudinarium is supposed to have been drawn up in Bp
R. Poore's time, i.e. before 1230, and while the choir of Salisbury was
not yet built. The text however as we know it, where it speaks of the
blessing of Holy water on Sundays (cap. 68, Osmund Reg. 1. p. 116)
contains a passage which reappears [with some modifications] in the
printed Processtonale (p. 1) in which the presbytery and its altar are
! An iron-bound ark or coffer for keeping documents and relicks stood by
the ‘principal altar’ at Old Sarum, and a red ‘ pallium' with golden eagles
was placed before it in 1222. Osmund Reg. 1. pp. 136—7. See also in the
Consuetudinary, c. 25, id. 1. p. 52.
3 Possibly the original occasion may have been on Michaelmas Day the
29th, but in later years it may have been thought better to keep the anniver-
sary on the 3oth, disturbing St Jerome's Day in preference to that of All
Angels.
In the accounts of the Clerk of the Works 1464 there is an entry ‘pro
clauibus nouis, et vna stapula noua, cum reparatione serurarum in tabula ad
summum altare.’
23 Oct. 1471. Bp Beauchamp caused a tabernacle of wood to be made,
* fabricatum curiose, pluribus ymaginibus sculpatum,’ to stand before the high
altar (Machon Reg. fo. xxxix.).
The B. Sacrament or Host was reserved £5 summo altari, at least at the
date of the Statutes of the Robert and Margaret Hungerford Chantry, 1 May,
1472. (Hobhouse Chartulary, 3228, cap. VII.)
From the Osmund Register fo. 1© we learn that in earlier times there had
been the Image of B. Mary, the relicks with six candles before them set on
high (v eminencia), together with the crucifix and other images (1. p. 8).
On the Image of B. V. M. see Machon Reg., fo. ix. There was an Image
of our Lady extra nauem. Before it subtreasurer J. Cooke, who died 22 Aug.
1469, was buried (Afachon, p. 238). Another t# va/uis ecclesie. Geoffrey
Curteis was charged 28 Sept. 1351 for neglecting to keep a lamp burning
before it as part of the rent of his house in the Close. (Coz/fe Reg., p. 74.)
Although Mr Harford Pearson speaks of basons, with water and a towel
placed ‘on the shelf over the Piscina! (.Sarwm Missal in English, ed. 1868,
P. lii.), I have not been able to trace the authority for this direction. For my
own part I am inclined to question whether any piscina was required at high
mass in our English Churches until the vessels had been carried back into the
sacristy. For the side-altars or chapels each group at Salisbury was provided
with aumbries and piscinas (usually a pair of each).
I Oct. 1404. The Dean (J. Chandler) announced his intention of pro-
viding ‘duos torchetos ardentes ad summum altare tempore eleuationis cor-
poris Christi, ad magnam missam, singulis duplicibus festis, et in festis ix
lectionum, et in commemoratione heate Marie; et promisit tunc ibidem se
soluturum singulis annis choristis huiusmodi torchetos tendentibus iiijs. pro
eorum labore’ (Drager Reg. p. 36).
18 Apr. 1407. It was agreed that oblations at the High Altar at high
mass on St George's Feast should go to the fabric (7d. p. 76).
Io March, 1443. It was ordered that two ‘torches’ should be displayed
at the High Altar, and 627. per annum charged upon the Chancellor’s mead for
the purpose, the residue of the expense to be borne by the Fabric, on the
ground that this fund receives all oblations of wax excepting only those made
at the high altar (Z7uchins, p. 78).
ON THE ALTARS AND CHAPELS. 279
mentioned as follows: ...‘peractis hijs que ad capitulum pertinent,
sacerdos ebdomadarius [alba indutus, in capa serica] cum diacono et
subdiacono textum deferente, et puero deferente thuribulum, et [duobus
ceroferarijs et acolito crucem ferente, omnibus albis [cum amictibus
indutis et ad altare in medio presbiterij conuersis (he Proc. reads ‘et
in medio presbiterij ad altare conversis’)...ad gradum chori aquam
faciat benedictam.
There is much probability in the suggestion of the late Canon Rich
Jones that the high altar in the 13th century was placed under the
figure of our Lord in glory at the intersection of the eastern transept
and the choir, considerably westward of the site which the altar now
occupies, and (as he says) already occupied before the Reformation.
He refers to Wilt. Archaol. Mag. xvii. 136 and to the Sacristy, 1881.
As has been noted above (p. 225) a weekly mass was said fro bene-
Jactoribus in 1472—3 ‘ad altare beate Marie,’ which, strictly inter-
preted, might mean the high altar, though other interpretations have
been suggested. Moreover at a later date, viz. in 1524, Edmund
Audley, Bp, was buried ‘in the Chantry Chapel which he had built in
honour of the Assumption’ somewhat to the north, ‘22 presbyterio ex
parte boreaí?! (Fasti, p. 104). Judging from the condition of the East
wall, Mr Malden tells me that it is clear that this chantry had an altar
to itself. However the ‘altare principale’ had the same dedication!.
Near the high altar in Old Sarum Church there had been (perhaps
on the north side; Rock, Church of our Fathers, ii. 97) an image of
the B. Virgin, and in 1179 canon Herbert had provided a light (sor-
tarium) by night, ‘juxta magnum altare, ante imaginem sancte Marie.’
Osmund Reg. 1. 252. Cf. p. 53. A silver corona with three chains held
up the silver Dove in which the Eucharist was reserved: ¢d. 11. 129.
There was a cross with two curtains over the high altar, zd. 11. 134.
Mr Malden send us the following extract from the Machon Register,
P. 73:
23 Oct. 1471.] ‘Memorandum quod Reverendus pater dominus
Ricardus Beauchamp, episcopus Sarum modernus, In domo Capitulari,
coram quibusdam dominis canonicis residentiariis stantibus, fieri legi
fecit per magistrum W. Nessingwyke quandam partem Indenturarum,
concernentium Tabernaculum Ligneum quod pro capitali loco summi
altaris Ecclesie sue Sarum fabrican curiose [et] pluribus ymaginibus
sculpari fecerat ibidem situandum.’
(W. Nessingwick was at this time prebendary of Farringdon and
Subdean. He gave one of the windows in the Cathedral library.)
In 1601 a payment was made "to the Mason for repairing the
Altar walls where the Commandments are, for one day, 1s. A labourer
to serve him, 6a.”
On this entry Mr F. R. Fisher, Clerk of the Works, has left a
memorandum :
“1870, July 8. I was anxious to know if the Altar shown in Vertue's
plan under the centre of the Eastern Groin of the Choir was a stone
one. Mr Hutchence [former Clerk of the Works] had one of the
paving stones in the centre line of the groin removed, when we found
that the ground under was loose rubble. I conclude from this that
the screen shown by Vertue was a wood one, and the original stone
screen repaired was under the arches next the Lady Chapel. I do not
believe that Wren ever put up an Altar Screen, but that it was perhaps
! The case of several altars of the Holy Rood both in Wells Cathedral,
and at Evesham, and in the latter church two of St John Baptist also, shows
that a repetition of an altar title in a church was not unknown.
280 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
of wood some years before his time. I now believe that the altar
described by Price as Haselbury stone was the walls that filled in
between the arches (see Vertue), and the same as repaired above.”
(F.F.)
Mr Fisher notes also:
“There is mention in the Clerk of the Works’ accounts of ‘the
wooden altar.’”
“The ancient chantrey Chapels remained in the Cathedral until
towards the close of the last century, when we know they were nearly
all destroyed....It is evident that within a few years after the Chapels
had ceased to be used for religious services some of them were turned
into stores and receptacles for lumber. Thus in 1585 ‘a key’ is pro-
vided ‘for the Chapel where the Glazier laid his coals,’ and in 1586
another key ‘for a Chapel door for to lay the Glazier’s things in) In
1606 a Chapel is mentioned ‘where the lime is laid? In 1613 two
labourers are at work ‘carrying sand into the Chapel by the Cloister
door) In 1634, the year of Archbishop Laud’s Visitation of the
Cathedral, men are employed in ‘ridding all the lumber and timber out
of the Chapels.’ But in 1683 there is again proof of their being used
for stores; for in that year there is a charge ‘for a new key and mend-
ing the lock of the Chapel door, where they put their poles.’”
“In 1635 is the following entry:
*'To the plumber 2 days about the leads on the Almes Chapel, 2s.’
This must have been either the Hungerford or Beauchamp Chapel:
they being the only Chapels which, being outside the fabric, had
distinct roofs." (7. Fzsher.)
NOTE ON THE IMAGES IN THE CATHEDRAL CHURCH.
Besides the Images of the Blessed Virgin at the High Altar
(Machon Reg. fo. ix, Consuet. Osmund Reg. fo. 15) in the nave, ‘extra
nauem ecclesie! Alachon Reg. 1469 p. 238), ‘in valuis ecclesie! (Corf-
Reg. p. 74. 1351) at the W. door, and at the altar in Gesem (see
p. 305) [and in Hungerford Chapel] Mr Malden has found Images of
the following saints mentioned as formerly existing in the Cathedral
Church:
St Blaise
St James
St Roche
St Christopher, Hutchins Reg. 1443. fo. xxxiii p. 70.
And an Image of our Saviour!.
(2) The Altar of St Osmund. (See above, pp. 74, 207.)
It may be necessary here to distinguish between burial places (two
or more), and possibly also between altar and shrine.
About ten years after the Ms. Processional had been written, the
request made several years before for St Osmund's canonization was
granted by the Pope. The remains of the great Bishop of Sarum, who
had died in 1099, had been translated from Old Sarum, 14 June, 1226,
to the new Cathedral Church?, and placed for a time *on the south syde
1 [There was an *ymago Ifiu,’ and another *gloriose virginis Marie,’ in
the Hungerford Chapel in 1472 (Chantry Statutes, cap. 1x). Probably that to
which Mr Malden refers was an older one, used in the ceremonies of Good
Friday, Easter and Ascension Day.] .

For some reason his Translation Festival was not kept on June 14, but on
July 16. Possibly this was the time when the new shrine was ready. The

of our Lady while the Shrine was a makyng’ (Leland iii. p. 79, ed. 1744).
Two years later Pope Gregory IX. was pressed to give effect to the
petition, which had gone up from Salisbury, in the time of his pre-
decessor, but in vain. Bp Engham and Bp Halam were unsuccessful.
Two centuries had passed when Dean Chandler in 1416, and again,
as Bp, in 1424, in the pontificate of Martin V., interested himself to
stir the matter which had been so often hindered. In 1456 Calixtus III.
decreed the canonization of Osmund ; and one of the earliest effects of
the decree doubtless was the raising of an altar of St Osmund some-
where near the place where he was laid. Judging from the place
chosen for the insertion of this note in the margin of this service-book
about that date, I am led to conjecture that this altar was behind the
Great Altar of the Assumption, i.e. it was either due East, or S.E., of the
high altar, and that it was washed before the procession left the choir or
presbytery. Very shortly after the canonization we find a mention of
such an altar of St Osmund; in the will of Robert Lord Hungerford,
22 April, 1459. Nicolas, Zes/am. Vetusta, p. 294.
The plan of “circ. A.D. 1733” reproduced by the late Recorder of
Sarum, Mr J. D. Chambers, in his Divine Worship in the 13th and
14th Centuries, &c., marks St Osmund's plain tomb in the very centre
of the .Sa/ve or Lady Chapel. This seems à riori the more natural
sition for the tomb of so eminent a personage. It is not as if he had
en buried quietly at Salisbury before people found out his worth ; he
was brought there more than a century and a quarter after his decease,
and though he was not canonized at that time when his remains were
brought from Old Sarum, yet the testimony of Leland that Osmund
had been temporarily placed ‘on the south side of our Lady’ while the
shrine was being prepared (in the latter half of the rsth century),
implies, I think, that in Leland's own time (cir. 1530) the completed
shrine was Jefore the altar of the Blessed Virgin, rather than on the
south side of it.
(A) The Audley Chapel.
Edmund Audley, Bp of Salisbury 1502— 24, built in 1520 a chantry
chapel which still stands on the north side of the high altar *z» arte
boreali summi altaris! (Constitutiones), *Zu presbyterio, ex parte boreals?
(Leland): ‘eastward of the choir door, north of the altar’ (Price). It
was dedicated in honour of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin.
(Rich Jones, Fast? Sarisó. p. 104.) Bp Audley died at Ramsbury,
23 Aug. 1524, but was ‘tumulatus Sarum, in capella a se condita [ex]
boreali altaris parte’ (MS. Fasti), where he had founded a chantry for
his soul. There was clearly an altar against its eastern wall.
(3) The Altar of St Martin. (See above, pp. 74—5, 207—8.)
This, the text tells us, was reached by passing out of the choir
through its north door.
general observance of St Osmund's Translation was the subject of debate in
Convocation so late as 1480. Wilkins’ Concilia, 1. p. 613. By an In-
dulgence 23 Jan. 1472 Sixtus IV. encouraged attendance of worshippers at
both the festivals of St Osmund ‘in obitus et Translacionis festivitatibus.’
Misc. et Statuta, fo. 12. A clause to mention such as should contribute to the
erection of the ‘shryne of the blessed saynt Osmunde whiche ys nowe in
makyng’ was written inside the cover of the Ms. Processional at Salisbury for
insertion, doubtless, in Bidding the Bedes.
By his will proved in 1501, J. Doggett, Chancellor of Sarum, bequeathed
£10 to St Osmund's shrine. Fast, p. 339. In 1485 the prebend of Horton
was sequestrated and the revenues devoted to the making of the shrine,
id. p. 394 5. The Statutum de Capis (1490) directs that each new Bishop
should give £20, or a silk cope for use in the Cathedral service, ‘in honour of
B. Mary, St Osmund and all Hallows,’
282 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
It was St Martin who sent St Ninian as a missionary, and his
dedication is ordinarily a sign of early foundation among our English
churches!. Although neither of the three altars first dedicated at
Salisbury bore this name, it seems highly probable that there was one
of this dedication at Old Sarum, and perhaps one was erected at new
Salisbury before the high altar was consecrated. At all events plans
and preparations for an altar of St Martin were already taken in hand.
A ‘pannus unus vetus’ before this altar is mentioned in the Treasurer’s
Inventory of 1222, Osmund Reg. V. 134; and the altar is mentioned
also in the Consuetudinary (#d. 1. pp. 128, 134), where it is directed that
this should be the first altar visited in the £s? Wednesday procession
in Lent?, and that hither two priests were solemnly to carry the cross
from the Sepulchre on Easter morning, going through the south door
(ostium australe) of the presbytery and returning through the midst
of the choir. (Compare with this the printed Processtonale pp. 91, 92,
where the direction is given in different words. There St Martin’s
altar is not expressly named, but ‘a# altar on the north of the
church.’)
When St Martin's day fell upon a Sunday, 11 Nov. //fera domint-
calis G, the procession was to visit his altar before passing before the
Rood (Zrev. Sarum 1. p. mcxc.) 26 May, 1374. W. Okeburne, canon
of Sarum, increased the endowment of the perpetual chantry which
Herbert de Bedewynde (whose obit was 4 Sept. cir. 1243—84) had
previously founded at the altar of St Martin; and he stipulated that
his own name should be added to the commemoration after his death.
(Muniment Room, Press 4. O.)
I feel some doubt about the identity of Herbert (canon) of Bedwin
as Rich Jones in one place makes the canon of Old Sarum cir. 1179
(Osmund Reg. Y. p. 252) to be ‘Herbert,’ while in his Fas£i p. 362 he
gives him as Hubert, distinguishing Herbert as his successor.
I have no doubt that St Martin's altar was in a chapel of the
north-east transept. It is generally said to be the altar nearest the
north door of the choir. The celebrant there had to his right a double
aumbry or recess with structural shelves, in the return wall. The
more easterly of these has at the bottom a piscina below its shelf.
I should think it à 72071 more natural, however, to go to the more
remote corner of the transept first, and then to pass to the more
southerly chapel, instead of retracing steps and passing a washed altar
on my left hand. Possibly the modern practice in continental
churches, in the order of visiting altars for censing or washing them
(if indeed the last-named ceremony be now done), would throw some
light upon this question. The priest celebrating at the extreme north
of the N.E. transept has a double aumbry to his left hand, with
remains of the original oak doors still in place.
1 Dedications in St Martin's honour appear to have been continued ; for we
find such a dedication of a small new church at Marlborough with this title in
1240. .
5 The other five being St Katharine's, St John the Evangelist's, Sa/ve, St
Laurence', and the Morning Altar.
It has been suggested that the Sacrament was reserved at St Martin's
altar. But why then was there to be a light burnt only at night? We find
also that (at least in the 15th century) it was reserved at the High altar. See
above.
Brown's Z/ustrated Guide (1885) places an altar of St John in the
south choir aisle or S.E. transept alongside of that of St Mary Magdalene
(p- 33), but Brev. 1. p. clxviii and other passages show pretty clearly that the
altar next St M. Magdalene's was St Nicholas'.

(4) St Katharine’s Altar. (See above, pp. 75, 208.)
When St Katharine’s Day (25 Nov. G.) fell on a Sunday the pro-
cession was to visit her altar before passing before the Rood. Brev.
I. p. mcxcvi.
" As I have already mentioned there are two recesses with shelves,
the more easterly one containing a piscina.
(5) The Altar of [St Peter and] the Apostles. (See above, pp. 75,
179—80, 208.)
We pass now eastward to the most northerly of the three altars
which were dedicated by Richard Poore Bp of Sarum, 4 Kal. Oct.
(i.e. Sept. 28th) in 1225. ‘Aliud eciam dedicauit altare quod est a
parte aquilonari in honore beati Petri, apostolorum principis, et aliorum
apostolorum, says the Osmund Register (Il. p. 39) There were
ornaments already in the hands of the Treasurer for this altar, or one
of the same dedication, in 1222 (74. II. 139).
20 Sept. 1326. Henry de la Wyle gave a house 'iuxta scholas
grammaticales, propinquius ex parte australi? to provide a clerk for the
three chaplains who should celebrate daily ‘aa a/fare Apostolorum;
and for the two daily masses there for the souls of William of York
formerly Bishop (04. 1256), and Ralph of York formerly Chancellor
(0b. 1309), ‘ef ad omnes missas capitulares que ibidem celebrantur.
(Muniment Room, Press 4. O) Henry de la Wyle, Chancellor of
Sarum Cathedral Church, died 7 June 1329. See Calend. 7nguzs. ad
quod damnum, 20 Edw. II. and Patent 20 Edw. II. (A.D. 1396—7),
membrane 9. Jones’ Fasz Sarisburienses, p. 337. Chancellor Ralph
of York, like his successor H. de la Wyle, was a benefactor to the
chapter library. Some volumes presented by Chancellor Ralph are still
in the Cathedral Library at Salisbury, viz. MS. 11, S. Clementis Aecog-
nitiones ; MSS. 44—5, Vetus Testamentum cum glossa ; 91, 102 Evan-
geliaria, 142, Isidori. Etymologiarum, &c. ; 161 Cantica et Prover-
biorum Liber.
The altar of St Peter and Apostles appears in Brev. Sarum
I, clxviii., as being called simply “a/tare Apostolorum.”
In the plan of 1733, reproduced by the late Recorder of Salisbury,
the learned Mr J. D. Chambers, the tomb of Bp Roger, who had died
in 1139 at Old Sarum, and was removed to Salisbury, is identified
with that in a recess in the north wall by the altar of the Apostles.
The site of the altar is now covered by the Gorges monument, which
hides some curious 16th century glass representing the last com-
munion of the B. Virgin, a figure of St Christopher, &c.
Here there is a double aumbry in the north wall.
In the plan prefixed to the ‘Register of St Osmund’ 1. (Rolls Series,
1883), Mr Rich Jones gave the title of “St Peters Porch” to the
south-east porch which (formerly) led from the retro-choir into the
Bishop’s Garden. I understand from Mr Malden that he has not
been able to trace this name earlier than the seventeenth century ; and,
as the porch is on the opposite side of the Church to St Peter’s altar it
seems decidedly infelicitous, and to need stronger support than the
apology offered on page 28 of the ‘Handbook to Salisbury Cathedral.’
r Malden finds in 1587 the name “St Stephen’s Porch” which suits
it better, as it was next St Stephen’s altar: and in like manner the
north Transept porch was called ‘St Thomas’ Porch’ (being near
Abp Becket’s altar). The present north porch was known as ‘the
Great Porch,’ and the west porch was called for some reason ‘the
Blue Porch.’ As at Jerusalem (4czs iii. 2), there was at Salisbury a
porch or gate ‘gue aicitur Speciosa,’ viz. the Great North Porch. It

is on record that John Cariter, prebendary of Stratford, whose will was
proved in 1443, desired to be buried near Walter lord Hungerford,
and that he undertook ‘ pauiare cum marmoreo borialem partem nauis
ecclesie, incipiendo a capite altaris matutinalis, vsque ad portam que
vocatur .S$ecrosa'—ie. from opposite the Hungerford tomb to the
north porch. This old pavement is still zz sz». (Hutchins Reg. fo. 32.)
The north porch had an enclosure put up in it, and there were glass
windows there sometimes requiring to be mended.
(6) The Altar of Holy Trinity (and All Hallows) in the *.Sa/ve'
or Lady Chapel. (See above, pp. 75, 208.)
The full title *altare Trinitatis et Omnium Sanctorum, quod dicitur
Salve,” appears in the printed Processtonale, p. 17. ‘Holy Trinity
altar! is mentioned incidentally in Brev. 1I. p. ccxxix. in connexion with
the procession of the Boy Bishop at Childermas, and the title *.Sa/ue'
occurs Brev. 1. p. clxviii. It was so called after the opening of the
line Salve sancta parens enixa puerpera Regem derived from the
‘Carmen Paschale! of the fifth century poet Sedulius, and employed as
the office or introit of the ‘votive’ mass of the Blessed Virgin, which
may be more correctly described as the Mass sung ordinarily in the
Lady Chapel except from Advent to the Purification, and likewise sung
in choir on Saturday or whenever else her weekly commemoration is
observed!, Mzssa/e, p. 779.
According to a custom, instituted at least in the diocese of Lincoln
by a contemporary of Bp Poore, a tablet was erected near the altar to
record its dedication, date, and title. Leland in the first half of the
sixteenth century noted (perhaps with some inaccuracies) the title
which he saw in the Lady Chapel at Salisbury. It was thus printed in
1744: ‘‘Orate pro anima Richardi Poure, quondam Sarum Episcopi,
qui ecclesiam hanc inchoari fecit in quodam fundo vbi nunc fundata est,

seats or stalls in the retro-choir may represent traces of an early accam-
modation for the canons and others attending such services, but I cannot
prove this. In the ' /nformacion for Pylgrymes unto the holy londe,’ written
about 1470, and printed cir. 1481—92 by W. de Worde, the third Station ar
Holy Place mentioned, within Jerusalem, was ‘‘ In the sepulcre chirche of ox

1539 as ‘the morow masse aulter) See below no. (xxviii).
We ought to mention here those fifteenth century Chantry Chapels
annexed respectively left and right, and the third placed opposite, due
west of the Trinity altar and Lady Chapel, but removed in the 18th
century, about 1789, by Wyatt. The eastern end of the Beaucham
Chapel, formerly standing on the south of the Lady Chapel, was flush
with the east wall of the Lady Chapel itself. But the Hungerford
Chapel, which was on the north side opposite to it, did not extend quite
so far eastward, as may be seen from old engravings.
(B) The (Robert) Hungerford Chantry.
With Altar of our Lord and our Lady.
Of this Leland says, (fo. 63), ‘Robert Lord Hungreford dyed 18 of
May, A.D. 1459. Robert is buried on the North side of the Altare of
our Lady Chapelle in a Chapelle of his own Foundation. Margaret
wife to Robert; and Doughter to William Lord Botreaux, is buried in
the Midle of the same Chapelle in an High Tumbe'.’ A curious

and B. V. Mary.
14 Oct. 1471. Bp Beauchamp consecrated a marble tomb ‘in capella
nouiter erecta per nobilem dominam Margaretam diam de Hungerford &c.
iuxta sinistrum latus capelle sancte et benedicte Trinitatis ecclesie cathedralis
Sarum in orientali parte ibidem antiqu. situat’ et fundat. He also con-
secrated in the said chapel the altar in honour of our Lord Jesu Christ and
His most blessed Mother the Virgin Mary (Afachon Reg. fo. xxxviiib). The
Statutes of the Hungerford Chantry, as given by Margaret Lady Hungerford
and Botreaux, in accordance with her letters patent dated in the Chapter
House at Salisbury 1 May (12° Ed. 4) A.D. 1472, are recorded in the Hodhouse
Chartulary, 3228, and consist of twenty-one articles. The chapel which she
had built was dedicated ‘in honore Ihesu et beate Marie.’ There were to be
two chaplains, and the Dean and Chapter were to have power to remove
either of them if convicted of notorious offence or crime. Besides grosser
errors, the breeding of hounds or hawks, playing at cards, dice, or hand-
ball (manualium pilarum, perhaps ‘fives’) were expressly forbidden. The
foundress placed ‘sub altare’ a chest for the evidences and the most valuable
of the jewels, ornaments and vestments of the chapel to be preserved in.
The three keys of this ‘cista communis’ were to be in the custody respectively
of the chaplains and the foundress (and the D. and C. after her decease). An
inventory in duplicate to be made, and viewed by each chaplain on ap-
intment. An account (compotus) to be rendered in Michaelmas week
Art. 1—6). Each chaplain might have a month's holiday. They were to
live in a ‘Robert Ld. Hungerford’s Chantry-House' in the Close. Not to
exchange the chaplaincy for any other benefice (Art. ro—12). If a chaplain
is too sick to celebrate, he must say personally, or by deputy, a nocturn each
day, if in Lent; or at other seasons (principal feasts alone excepted) ‘duos
nocturnos de psalterio Dauid.' If both are hors de combat, the D. and C.
appoint a substitute. Their stipends to be 12 marcs apiece. No money to be
lent out of the chest. No property of the chapel to be pawned or made away
with (Art. 13—17). The ornaments and vestments in common use to be kept
in an aumbry (in quadam alia cista infra capellam...in muro ibidem sub una
serura), each chaplain having a key. They are to follow the choir in vicars’
habit for High Mass, Evensong, and Compline on Sundays and Festivals, and
get their masses over in time to attend the processions (Art. 18, 19). Th
ordinances (Artt. 20, 21) with the form of Oath on admission, and the clause
reserving to the foundress right to revise the Statutes. The articles relating to
the Chaplains' religious duties prescribe that on first entering the Cathedral
Church each day, *genuffectentes, animas prefati Roberti et prefate Margarete
in memoria habentes, dicent, et uterque eorum dicet, coram Corpore Christi in
summo altari, hanc orationem,

ord Chapel, is represented in Benson and Hatcher’s Salisbury p. 542,
and in Gough's Sepulchral Monuments, 11., plate 1xii., p. 187. There
was also a painting of St Christopher at the west end of this chapel.

ON THE ALTARS AND CHAPELS. 287
(Description of this Admirable Structure, etc., 1774, p. 93-) For the
Chantry of Walter Ld. Hungerford in the Nave, see below no. (xxiv).
His obit was celebrated May 15th (Afachon Reg. fo. xlvii).
(C) The Beauchamp Chantry, and (C*) Cheyney’s Chantry.
‘In a Chapelle on the South side of our Ladies Chapelle Altare
[lieth Ric.] Beauchamp Bp of Sarum (d. 1481) in the Midle of the
Chapel in a playn Marble Tumbe. Bp Beauchamp’s Father and
Mother ly also there in Marble Tumbes.
‘Syr John Cheyney late Knight of the Garter lyeth also in this
Chapelle.’ Thus in the accounts of the Clerk of the Works in 1581
Mr Malden finds ‘the Chapel within our Lady’s Chapel, called Chene’s
Chapel” (There was also a Dean ‘Chayne’ or Cheyne who died 25
July, 1502, and was mentioned in the Bede Roll. See p. 27, above.)!
(D) B5 Blyth’s Tomb.
‘Bp Beauchamp (1450—81) had made afore a rich Tumbe and a
Chapel over it at the West end of our Lady Chapelle, but [p. 79] one
John Blith Bisshop of Sarum was after buried under it [in 1499]. It is
said that Beauchampe axid a sister of... how she liked this Tumbe.’
(Leland /tin. fo. 63=111. 78.—9. The rest of the anecdote is lost.) His
tomb stood behind the high altar ‘ thwart-over,’ north and south instead
of east and west, under the confessional chair. The ‘ Description of
that Admirable Structure, etc., 1774, p. 83, describes it as ‘ behind the
Altar, under an arch with a closet over it.’ James Wyatt removed
it to the extreme wall to the north-west corner of the north-west
transept. Dr J. Milner says that Bp Blith ‘was buried in the usual
direction,’ only his monument and figure were ‘unavoidably placed
north and south. (7Ze Modern style of altering Ancient Cathedrals,
ed. 1811, p. 15.)
(7) The Altar of All Hallows. (See above, pp. 76, 180; cf. 209.)
‘Like the passage relating to St Osmund two pages earlier in
the MS., the formula ‘ad a/fare Omnium Sanctorum’ is an addition in
the lower margin, and from this circumstance we may gather that some
time after 1445, when the main part of the document was written,
it was decided to introduce a new altar of All Saints into the east
or south part of the presbytery instead of continuing the old arrange-
ment by which ‘All Saints’ were merged in the dedication of the
Trinity altar in the Lady Chapel (no. 6). The insertion of the formula
at the foot of fo. 29* makes it fairly certain that this new altar was to
be visited somewhere a/fer (no. 3) St Martin's altar, and de/fore that of
St Nicholas (no. 10). The old connexion of its dedication with no. 6
makes it not improbable that the new altar was somewhere near the
Salve altar. But, so far as we are aware, there is nothing to tell
us whether it was directly between the 'Salve? altar and the High
Altar, or against one of the pillars in the Lady Chapel, or in the
Hungerford (or the Beauchamp) chantry, or elsewhere (nos. 6, 6 a—.)?.
! “There was a custom that on Christmas Day, and all holy days, the
wives of the mayor and aldermen and gentry of the city came to prayers in
Beauchamp's chapel in the evening with flambeaux and torches, except on
Innocents’ Day, when they went to their own parish churches." T. Baker's
Collection of Epitaphs cited in Dzocesan Hist. of Salisbury by W. H. Jones,
. 148— 9.
"P. If the altar of St Osmund was at a shrine on the ‘space’ or screen
behind the high altar and to the northward (i.e. at the place suggested by the
288 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
(8) The Altar of St Stephen and the Martyrs. (See above, pp.
76, 180—81 ; 209.)
This altar was the third and last which Bp R. Poore dedicated in
the eastern limb (the first part of the Cathedral Church to be com-
pleted) on Sunday 28th Sept. 1225: ‘altare quod est ex parte australi
in honore sancti Stephani protomartiris dedicauit, et aliorum mar-
tirum.’ Osmund Reg. M. p. 39. Vestments, missals, and two copper
candlesticks, &c., were already deposited with the Treasurer for an
altar of this dedication in 1222 (sdéd. 11. 140).
On Christmas Day at Second Evensong they went ‘through the
midst of the choir to St Stephen's altar, and the prose there had a
prolonged accompaniment either from the voices of the choir or by a
chord struck upon ‘the organs’ (zd. p. 14, cf. Brev. I. p. cxcv. See also
p. clxviii. quoted in our section on “the Vestry” below).
There 1s a perplexing note in Brown's Guide (by Canon Jones,
pp. 64—5) in which he tells us that an old record speaks of Bp Roger
as buried ‘near the chapel of St Stephen.’ But this depends upon a
misreading.
In the south wall (to the right hand of a priest celebrating at
St Stephen's altar) is an original double piscina!
15 Sept. 1323. W. Ichynton was appointed to the chantry of

and Earl William his brother, at St Stephen’s altar. (See Machon
Reg. fo. Ixxi®.) The names of several other chaplains appointed to
this chantry may be gathered from the Chapter Acts.
(9) Altar of St Mary Magdalen. (See above, pp. 76, 181)
An altar with this dedication is mentioned in the Breviary 111.
P- 501, and in the printed Processtonale, p. 151, merely for the proces-
sion at first evensong of this Saint (21—22 July) Likewise in the
Breviary, 1. p. clxviii. (to be cited in the next section) and p. mcxcvi.
where it it said that the procession is to go to her altar before it
passes to the Rood, if her festival falls on a Sunday (lit. dom. G.).
The tomb of Bp Giles de Bridport, with sculptured representation of
scenes from the prelate's life, is still standing in the south-east tran-
sept near the place of this altar. We have mentioned the chantry of
Andrew Hulse, who died April 14707.
Here there is a double aumbry in the north wall.
(10) The altar of St Nicholas. (See above, pp. 73, 76, 181, 210.)
22 April 1384. The executors of Roger Cloune (archd. of Sarum,
cir. 1361—80) delivered certain ornaments for the chantry of B. Mary
Magdalen. (Deed in Muniment Room.)
28 Sept. 1394. Roger Ferrour was presented to the perpetual
arabic numeral 2) above the left hand of the celebrant, it is conceivable that
there may have been a corresponding altar of All Hallows visible (where
I have put the arabic numeral 7) to his right hand as he faced the altar.
1 The double accommodation may have been provided either to supply
riests celebrating simultaneously at St Peter’s and St Stephen’s altars, or
perhaps more probably) to keep the ablutions of the sacred vessels apart
m the ablutio manuum at the /avaéo.
2 So Mr Malden finds from his epitaph in Machon Reg. p. 238. Andrew
Holes was Archd. of York and Wells, King's Proctor at the Court of Rome.
Afterwards Keeper of the Privy Seal for about three years, and then he returned
into residence at Salisbury.
ON THE ALTARS AND CHAPELS. 289
Chantry for the Soul of Bp Giles de Bridport, by Dr J. Turks, at the
altar of St Mary Magdalen. |
I Sept. 1452. Thomas Circestre, canon residentiary, increases the
chaplain's stipend for the Bridport chantry ' ad altare sancte et gloriose
Marie Magdalene ex parte australi chori, versus Sacristiam in dicta
ecclesia Cathedrali Sarum.’ (/uniment Room, press 3, cupboard 1,
box ‘ Vicars Choral.’)
Dr Milner in his Dissertation on the Modern Style of altering
anctent Cathedrals, ed. 1811, p. 8 2. (wrongly, I believe) calls the place
of this altar the ‘Chafel of S£ John, on the authority of notes in a
copy of Godwin de Presulibus. (See above, pp. 219, 221.)
THE VESTRY.
It will be remembered that the altar of St Nicholas was the place
where holy water had been blessed for this ceremony of washing the
altars (see p. 73, above) j$rivatzm. Some student of our Ms. has
glossed this in the margin by the words ‘é# Vestidulo, which may
possibly be the record of a tradition at Salisbury that St Nicholas’
altar stood in the vestry there. However, I think the gloss is merely
the result of a comparison of the Ms. with the parallel passage in the
printed Processionale p. 59,—“ Ad altaria abluenda.../mprimis bene-
dicatur aqua more dominicali extra chorum privatim, scilicet in vestt-
bulo ante altare" (The sacristry is mentioned by J. M. Cavalieri iv.
P. 250 6., asa suitable place for preparing holy-water, and those who used
the printed Sarum processional in our parish churches may have found
it so. There can, I think, be little doubt that ves/zéuium in that rubric
means the sacristry, although it sometimes means a porch!, and a
porch? existed on the S.E. of Salisbury Cathedral in the Palace garden,
t.e. south of the Lady Chapel, with a verger's house near it until com-
paratively recent times. This porch appears in the plan of 1733
(Chambers), but not in Coney's map (? 1830) in the Monasticon of 1846.
It was not on the same side as St Peters altar. The vestry at
Lincoln certainly contained an altar, which is almost a sine gua non
in a sacristy, and on it stood two tabernacles and the socket for hold-
ing a processional crucifix when not in use. (See my Lincoln Inven-
tories, pp. 4, 7, 8, 18.) And the room was sometimes used for reciting
their divine office by canons who were not quite well enough to attend
in choir. The sacristy (‘vestiarium’) at Evesham had an altar
with a specific dedication (St Peters) previous to 1229. (Lider
Ewvesham,*col. 28, p. 161, ed. Wilson.) It is therefore not in itself
1 Vestiarium is the word used for the vestry in Jrev. Sarum 111. p. 975,
and for that at Old Sarum, Osmund Keg. 11. 136, cf. 134, and at Lincoln
revestiarium was the usual form. — Vestióulum doubtless sometimes means a
porch, as where Leland says ‘the Vestibulu: on the North side of the Body
of the church,’ 76». fo. 66=111. p. 81. But in the Westminster Abbey
Inventory of 1388, title, it clearly means the sacristy (ed. J. Wickham Legg,
p. 19 #.). Soin the printed Processtonale Sarum, pp. 26, 59, 63, 7a.
3 *St Peter's Porch’ is mentioned in Brown’s Guide, p. 28. What is the
ancient authority for this name of the S.E. porch now removed? The porch,
and the Verger's house now destroyed, eastward of the Vestry, may be seen
represented in old views of Salisbury. Mr Francis Price's Ms. (printed as an
appendix to ‘4 Description of that Admirable Structure, the Cathedral Church
of Salisbury, &c.' Lond. 4to. 1774, p. 137) says that ‘this southern door’ was
‘called by tradition Ze/ez's Porch, doubtless because it led to an altar so

to identify the porch which once stood here and gave easy access to altar
no. 8 with that which was called more correctly in the time of Q. Elizabeth
* St Stephen’s Porch.’

impossible that the altar of St Nicholas was in the vestry at Salisbury.
However, I rather think that such a notion has arisen from a misun-
derstanding of the marginal comment in the MS. processional at
Salisbury, and symmetry seems to require us to place the altar of
St Nicholas by the side of that of St Mary Magdalene (no. 9) in the
S.E. transept itself, and not in the octagonal vestry. I base this
opinion not only on the list in the MS. in its original form, but upon a
similar passage in the Breviary rubric for Censing the Altars at
Magnificat on certain festivals Brev. 1. pp. clxvii—viii'. The celebrant
and the next personage in seniority attended by two boys (after the
Bishop has been censed in his seat) go round to cense fhe altars
round the presbytery in the following order. Instead of going round
together (as in washing the altars) they divide the duty : the senior
preceded by the Sacrist with his verge, and attended by a cerofer and
the hebdomadary boy as his thurifer, goes out of the choir by the north
door of the presbytery to (1) St Martin's altar, (2) St Katharine's,
(3) the Apostle's [St Peters], and (4) the Holy Trinity altar, which is
called Salve, or, as it is expressed in copies of Sarum Customs ‘ultimo
ad altare omnium Sanctorum quod dicitur Sa/ve, pursuing, that is, our
order (nos. 3—6). Meanwhile the second with his attendants (having,
with his lordship’s chaplain, censed the Bishop, if present) takes his
course through the south door of the presbytery to the altars of
( St Nicholas, (ii) St Mary Magdalen, and (i11) St Stephen, thus
effecting a meeting with the principal celebrant at the S.E. of the Lady
Chapel. The latter put fresh incense on both thuribles; and, returning
by the south door into the choir, the two canons together cense the
Bishop. From this it seems pretty clear that the arrangement of
altars in the presbytery (before St Osmund’s and All Hallows’ altars
were introduced in the latter part of the 15th century) was this

There is a parallel passage in the Consuetudinary, cap. 54 (Osmund
Reg. i. p. 92), but I think the text, as printed, is corrupt. There is
some confusion at all events between ‘ orientalem? and *australem.'
There is a double piscina in the south wall to the south of St Nicho-
las’ altar.
In the north-west side of the octagonal sacristy there are three
large aumbries still in use. Mr Freemantle tells me that there is also
a recess in the western wall (hidden at present by an oaken press).
The recess is about 2ft. square and ij ft. in depth. The chamber
above (now containing the muniments of the Dean and Chapter) was
formerly a Treasury. (At Lincoln the old treasure-chamber is beneath
the vestry in a crypt.)
At Salisbury the Muniment-room and the Vestry are sometimes
called the “superior” and “inferior” Treasury.

II. The Altar of St Margaret. (See above, pp. 77, 211.)
An altar dedicated in honour of St Margaret is merely mentioned
for the procession at first evensong of the feast of this Virgin Martyr
(19—20 July) in the printed Processtonale p. 151. So Brev. Sarum
I1. P 501. No image is mentioned. When her festival falls on
Sunday (lit. Dom. £.) the procession is to visit her altar before going
before the Rood. z4. I. p. mcxcvi.
The obit of Ri. Mitford (buried in 1407, in the chapel of St Margaret,
see p.211) is given on 5 May; but? 3 May in a note after the Kalendar,
fo. 7, in the old Ordinale at Salisbury, ms. 175.
The first complaint laid at Bp Beauchamp's Visitation in Sept.
1468 was, that £50, bequeathed by T. Knyght aZias Towke, for the
express purpose of finding a priest for the Altar of St Margaret,
remained in the hands of J. Cranborne, not employed according to the
will of the testator. (Afachon Reg.)
24 Sept. 1474. W. Stapull died and was buried in the cathedral
church, ‘ante hostium capelle sancte Margarete.’ (72. p. 241.)
In the accounts of the Clerk of the Works 1530—31, and again
1539—40, Mr Malden finds a payment entered for the vicar celebrat-
ing mass at the chapel of St Margaret for the soul of Walter Bennet,
on his obit, kept in those years on July 29. Likewise in the same years
for the vicar celebrating mass at the altar of St Margaret for the soul
of William Teyntrell. |
The guide-books place the altar of St Margaret as the middle one
of three in the S.W. transept. But, following our manuscript, we
should rather assign it an end place!.
There is not now any return-wall to the north, nor any trace of
an "uM for these three chapels. (For the piscinas, see no. 13,

o) The Altar of St Lawrence. (See above, pp. 77, 211. Cf.
P. 295.
It was directed in the printed book that there should be a proces-
sion to this altar at first evensong of St Lawrence (9—10 Aug.)
Processionale p. 153, (Brev. 111. p. 646, says ‘his altar, if there is one,
for parish churches, &c.).
In 1464 the Clerk of the Works’ account contains a payment under
the name of Hugh Lokyer, ‘pro emendatione serure, et claue noua, pro
ostio capelle sancti Laurentii.
2 Dec. 1468. A sum of money, ‘in auro noue monete precipue
nuncupate Ayalls, was given to increase the stipend (exAzbitzo) of the
chantry-priest at the Altar of St Lawrence the Deacon (Letzte), on the
south side of the cathedral church, long since established. (Afachon
Reg. fo. xii*.)
13. St Michael's Altar. (See above, pp. 77, 211.)
The procession was to visit St Michael's altar at first evensong of
Michaelmas (28*:—299^ Sept.) There is a double piscina in the south
wall to the south of this altar. In our procession book it is directed
(p. 77) that the Altar of St Michael in Salisbury Cathedral Church be
washed after that of St Lawrence, and next before that of St Andrew
the Apostle.
! Dr J. Milner placed the chapel of St Margaret on the north side, at no.
19, and called no. 11 the chapel of St Mary Magdalen. (See above, p. 219.)
But his authority can hardly be right here, as the altar of St Mary Magdalen
on the south was versus sacrestiam in 1452.
19—2
292 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
14. The Altar of St Andrew the Apostle, or the Altar of the Holy
Ghost. (See above, pp. 77, 211.)
I am inclined to think that this altar was situated in the nave.
There is some difficulty in deciding whether it was on the north or on
the south, but Mr Malden, after considering the evidence, has given
it as his opinion that it was on the south.
At Bp Beauchamp’s Visitation in 1468 W. Mayow served the altar
of S¢ Andrew, and a charge was brought against him as * Willelmus
Mayowe, qui deservit Altan /» parte australi navis ecclesie cathedralis?
because he neglected his duty and serving East Harnham ; 7z.e. probably
as a chaplain of St John's on the bridge, attached to St Nicholas'
Hospital.
The printed processtonale (p. 136, ed. Henderson) directs that the
rocession at first evensong of St Andrew (Nov. 28—29") shall go to
fis altar, if there be one in the church, and our MS. makes it plain that
there was one with this dedication in the cathedral church at Salisbury.
(See p. 77.) The breviary rubric on proses at Christmas (i. p. clxxvi.)
expressly mentions certain holy days which had proses appointed to be
sung, and altars belonging to them, in Salisbury cathedral These
were St Stephen's, St John the Evangelist's, St 4ndrew’s, St Nicholas’,
the Invention of the Holy Cross (with altar of the Rood), St Thomas
of Canterbury, and possibly Holy Innocents’. But the phrase “zx
hebdomada Natiuitatis Domini” is obscure, and though there is a prose
for Childermas (Brev. Sar. 1. p. ccxxix.) the rubric probably implies
that the .Sa/ve altar (no. 6) was the one here used.
The * Ordinatio cantarze ad altare beati Andree, per Ro. de Hert-
ford decanum (see p. 211) was dated in his life-time, Thursday, 30%
March, 1256. The name of the altar is stated only in the heading.
It will be observed that the date of this ordinance for Dean Hertford's
(or Woodford’s) chantry is a year or two earlier than the dedication
of altars by Abp Boniface, which took place at Michaelmas, 1258.
Bp J. Milner’s authority (whether derived from the Ms. Fas¢z or not)
seems right here in placing the altar of “the Holy Ghost” directly
opposite to the (or rather az) altar “de Missa Matutinali.” (Disser-
tation on the Modern Style of altering Ancient Cathedrals, ed. 2, 1811.)
19 June 1345 James de Groundewell and J. de Tyryngham endowed
two chaplains to celebrate two masses daily (de die, et de Regute vel
de B. Virg. respectively) for King Edward II. and his almoner H. de
Bluntesdon (Archd. of Dorset, ob. 27 Sept. 1316) and William de Grounde-
welle ‘ad altare beati Andree.’ Corfe Reg. p. 45. It was, however,
kept at the altar of St Thomas (no. 17, q.v.) in 1348, Corffe Reg. p. 11;
and likewise in 1430 (Haraing Reg. fo. c.) Possibly this may have
arisen from the fact that there were two chaplains on the foundation.
They had a Chantry-House to the west of the church.
9 Jan. 1349. Rob. de Weremynstre is mentioned (Corfe Reg.
P. 43) as late perpetual chaplain of the chantry of King Edward it.
and of his former almoner Henry de Blontesdon (Archd. of Dorset) and
W. Groundewelle ad altare sanct? Andree. T. Knyght was chaplain
of this chantry 12 Oct. 1430 (Harding Reg. fo. c.), and W. Borde was
appointed 23 Aug. 1449 (Burgh. Reg. p. 50).
28% April 1394. ‘Jo. Chaundeler, laicus, senior, ciuis ciuitatis
Sarum, founded a Chantry at St Andrew's altar, and on the day
following (April 29%) presented J. Brent to the Dean and Chapter as
his first chaplain (Dunham Reg. p. 278). Mr Malden suggests that
this founder may have been father of J. Chandler, then canon and
afterwards bishop.
3 Aug. 1420. J. Morys was nominated to the Dean and Chapter
by George Louthorp, canon, to be perpetual chantry priest for the soul
ON THE ALTARS AND CHAPELS. 293
of J. Waltham, late Bp (04.17 Sept. 1395), and was instituted two days
later. (Harding Reg. fo. xi.)
In the Clerk of the Works’ account, 1539—40, there is a payment
* Vicariis Sarum, orantibus pro anima dicti Johannis Waltham, s navi
ecclesie.
13 Dec. 1443. The Dean and Chapter grant to J. Symondesburgh
a place of sepulture ‘ad ymaginem sancti Christofori recte in angulo
viciniori altaris scí Andree sive sci Spiritus tendente ad introitum
claustri eiusdem ecclesiz, et quod ipse poterit similiter figere in pariete
supra tumbam suam vnam Laminam deauratam sculptam cum ymagine
Saluatoris) (Hutchins Reg. fo. xxxiii>. p. 70.) There is an incised
parallelogram close to the angle of the wall, which, as Mr Malden
suggests, may be the matrix of the *lamina deaurata, and remains of
the bolts which supported the image of St Christopher may be detected.
In 1468 (Sept), at Bp Beauchamp's Visitation, the articles of
Detecta nos. 9, 10, 26, refer to the Altar of St Andrew, to which allusion
is apparently made as 'a/lare in parte Australi nauis eccl. Cath.’
Four masses were due for celebration there, immediately after the
conclusion 'frime misse matutinalis summo mane’ (Machon Reg.).
So we may at least infer that this altar was on the southern side of the
nave at Salisbury.
THE MORNING ALTAR.
The position of the Morning Altar, or Morrow-Mass Altar, now
requires to be considered.
30 Aug. 1406. The Dean, J. Chaundeler, had reported that J.
Chaundeler the elder, citizen of New Sarum (very possibly his father),
would provide two torches to burn every day at the first mass at the
Morning Altar, and had provided for a hundred years at the rate of
6s. 84. per annum. (Draper Reg. p. 56.)
The account of the Clerk of the Works in 1464 contains a note of
several oblations “ad altare matut.: et ostium occident," viz. on the
Festival of the Dedication and Octave (30 Sept.—7 Oct.) 4s. 8d.
Depositio S. Osmundi (4 Dec.) 35. 744.
Whitsun Week, 67. 125. 1014. (pentecostal oblations.)
Corpus Christi, 55. 284.
Feast of Relics (in July), 2234.
In the Machon Register (fo. xxiii) out of the goods bequeathed by
Thomas Styll, priest, 7 Aug. 1470, certain ornaments were assigned to
altare misse matutinalis, viz. a silver chalice parcel-gilt, two cruets, and
a pax of copper parcel-gilt, with the Salutation of Blessed Mary in ivory.
In the Clerk of the Works’ account for 1480, is a payment to eight
Vicars staying in the Church until morning, on each of the three last
nights before Easter, at the Morning Altar, at 27. each per night, 45.
Item paid to W. Huntington of the City [of Salisbury] for 2 wax
tapers bought of him for the Morning Altar against the feast of St
Osmund, 64.
We have given our reasons for thinking that in Bp Beauchamp's
time the altar of St Andrew was on the south side of the nave. It
appears to be described as being “towards the way to the Cloisters.”
And further considerations have been brought forward which make it
appear probable that it was on the sou side of the nave, and that it
was identical with the “Altar of the Holy Ghost.”
Mr Malden tells me (13 Aug. 1897) that "according to the
Hutchins Register, fo. xxxii, p. 67, under date of 20 Oct. 1443, the
Dean and Chapter ‘concesserunt quod dictus Johannes [Caryter]!
1 John Carter or Caryter was prebendary of Stratford St Lawrence in the
Church of Sarum at the time of his death in 1443.
204 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
confrater eorum poterat habere locum sue sepulture in dicta ecclesia
Cathedrali ex parte boriali cantarie domini de Hungerford. Et insuper
dictus Johannes Cariter promisit paviare cum marmoreo éortatem
partem navis ecclesie incipiendo a capite altaris matutinalis usque ad
portam que vocatur speciosa.” The chantry of Walter lord Hungerford
was where his tomb now is, in the 2nd arch westward from the N.W.
grand leg of the tower. There is some old pavement of a distinctive
pattern which runs from exactly opposite the Hungerford tomb to the
North Porch (here connected with the Gate Beautiful), at the eastern
end of the north aisle of the nave. The pavement is nearly complete
on the north side of the aisle, and a good deal remains on the south.
Mr Bindley, the Clerk of the Works, tells me that it is probably the
oldest existing pavement in the Cathedral and may well be 450 years
old. Therefore I think the Morning Altar was in the north aisle of
the nave, of£osite the 2nd arch from the N.W. ‘Grand leg.’ Bp de la
Corner (or ‘Comer,’ as his name was written in a list inserted in the
Metford Register in Bp Ayscough’s time) buried between the
Morning Altar and the Altar of the Holy Ghosh
the Altar of the Holy Ghost (which I identify with St A
in the 2nd arch on the south side? (A. R. MALDEN.)
18 Oct. 1539, when Geo. Flowre was appointed altarist of'4B€
chantry of Edm. Audley, he was admitted ‘in ecclesia Cathedrtli
beate Marie Sarum, coram altare beate Marie, vulgariter dict. 44e -
morow masse aulter” Hence we see that at that date the (or a)
morrow-mass altar had the dedication as ‘St Mary's altar.’
Lest we should suppose that this was only another name for the
altar in the Sa/ve or Lady Chapel, we must observe that the two are
clearly distinguished, not only in the list of altarists in 1387 to which we
referred above, but also in the record of Bp Beauchamp's Visitation in
1468, where it was explained that the only altars for which funds
to provide torches for mass were available were these :
masses of the High Altar,
masses at the Trinity Altar in the chapel which is commonly called
St Mary the Virgin's,
and the morrow masses. (Machon R^ g.).
The Ms. Constitutiones collected in the 17th century, speaking of
the burial places of bishops, tells us (when rightly deciphered) that
Bp * Rogerus," the first of that name, who died about 4 Dec. 1139 (his
obit being kept at Lincoln and Salisbury on the rith) was buried
“in 3 arcu ab altar. matuti.”
Now if we place the Morning altar at the N.E. extremity of the
nave and on the north side of it we shall, I think, satisfy the require-
ments of the case. When Mr Fisher was engaged on repairs, he
opened the tomb “27 fercto arcu ab altari matutinali," i.e. the tomb
behind the choir seats on the north, and saw a chalice and paten
therein. Roger de Mortival would doubtless have been buried with
these symbols: but Mr Malden questions whether they would have
been placed in the second burial place of Roger 1"*, when his body
was brought from Old Sarum. It is difficult to pronounce with any
confidence upon the burial place of these namesake bishops.
The plan of 1733 reproduced by Mr J. D. Chambers, the day
Recorder of Sarum, as a frontispiece to his Divine Wor Chapter as
XI11th and XIVth Centuries, &c., marks ‘Bp Roger47 ~“28P
the wall N.W. of the present Gorges’ monument, ne
St Peter and the Apostles’ Altar. But it has been sugg*
reason that ‘the plain stone with a cross,’ and the site thus 1; ter
in the plan, belonged really to the second Bp Roger (de Mortival
died 14th March, 1330. This, however, involves a different interpi"

tion of the phrase ‘in boreali parte [? *pariete? A.R.M.] chori? from that
which Price adopted.
The third arch (westward) will be the place where the twelfth-century
bishops’ tombs still remain, and they have been supposed by many to
be those of Roger and Joceline.
Two other considerations favour this hypothesis.
Bishop W. de la Corner (or Comer), as we have stated already, was
buried, according to the best authorities now accessible!, *in the nave
of the church, betwixt the morning altar and that of the Holy Ghost,
in.1291. This would (on our theory) make Corner's burial place the
middle of the nave, and this may have been what Seth Ward intended
to say when he wrote ‘in medio chori, Price went a step further and
gave ‘local colouring’ by naming ‘the Eagle.’
The Altar of the Holy Spirit is mentioned in 1443 (Hutchins Reg.
fo. xxxiii®, p. 70) along with the altar of S7 Andrew (no. 14, above) and
apparently as zdentical with that altar, which on independent con-
siderations I had placed at the south-east of the nave, near or against
the S.W. leg of the central steeple. It was near to an image of St
Christopher, and on the way to the cloisters by the great south tran-
sept.
"Such a position in the eastern portion of the nave would make the
altar of the Holy Ghost convenient for such occasions as a Synod or
an Ordination.
Coney's map (drawn I suppose about 1830) and printed in the
Monasticon (ed. 1846) shews a “Morning Prayer Chapel with an
altar-table, in the north part of the north-east transept (ho. 3, above).
But this name, as I conjecture, had no connexion with the medizval
Morrow Mass, but related to some comparatively modern arrangement
for mattins on week days out of choir, as was the case with the
'" “Morning Chapel" at Lincoln in the 17th and 18th centuries, and (after
the interval of one generation) at the present day.
E The Altar of St George and St Denys. (See above, pp.
77; 78.
Also, Altar of St Denys and St Lawrence.
An altar of St Denys had been founded in the nave not many
years before our procession-book was written.
John Chitterne, Canon of Salisbury, Archdeacon of Wilts and Sarum,
and Warden of the College de Valle Scholarium (‘de Vaux College),
died about 1419. The ordinance for his obit, with that of his parents
Robert and Matilda Chitterne, and Sir Bernard Brocas the elder,
knight, is dated 3oth April 1420, and is entered in the Harding
Register, fo. xi.
There was already an altar of St Lawrence (no. 12, pp. 77, 211) and
as this joint altar of *St Denys and St Lawrence" is expressly said to
have been dedicated “between the columns :z the nave,” and I had
independently concluded that the altar of “St George and St Denys”
1 Mr Malden writes to me (13 Aug. 1897): *' Bp de la Corner was said to be
buried ‘in the middle of the cAozr nearly under the eagle.” Choir I think is a
Arfstake, and is corrected to save by one authority. When there was a pulpit
appear mouth side of the nave, and service was regularly held there, the
was identica one was at the north side, where the Hungerford Chantry was;
Mr Malde'3gle should be placed opposite the throne is not, I think,
Hutchins Re *9uld then stand over Bishop de la Corner's grave, between the
Dean ane :?! and the altar of the Holy Ghost." Of these altars Mr Malden
.e former in the north aisle of the nave opposite from the second arch
1 Je'ae N.W. ‘grand leg’ of the tower; and he places the altar of the Holy
Churest in the second arch on the south side. See above, pp. 211 (no. 12), 2324 ».
296 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
mentioned in our MS. procession-book (p. 77) was on the north side of
the nave, near the choir screen, I see no reason to doubt that the
* altar of St Denys and St Lawrence" (so called in 1420), was known
as the “altar of St George and St Denys" in 1450, St George being at
that time a popular saint in Salisbury, and St Lawrence having already
another altar to himself!. (See pp. 77, 211, 291.)
16. The Altar of St Cross?, which is called the Altar of the
Fabrick. (See above, pp. 78, 212.) And possibly the ‘parish’ or
*morning altar) (See no. xxiv. below.)
We have seen that in the earlier Cathedral Church at Old Sarum
there had been an Altar of the Holy Rood at which Herbert, Canon of
Bedwyn, had provided a light to burn by night (mortartum)’. Mr
Malden has found evidence quite recently (Feb. 1901) that the “/umen
Sancte Crucis? at Salisbury itself in later days was on the north side of
the Cathedral.
About 1265, Nicholas of St Quintin gave an annual rent-charge of
§ marcs for the maintenance of a chaplain to celebrate for the work-
men, &c. * missam ab operarijs dicte fabrice et eciam alijs ibidem con-
uenientibus audiendam in honore Dei et virginis prefate ad altare
sancte Crucis dicte fabrice assignatum cotidie mane celebrantis in
perpetuum. (Afwniment Room, press 4, cupboard 6.)
In the rubric of the Sarum Breviary, treating of proses sung at
evensong on sundry festivals, connected wherewtth there be altars in
the Church of Sarum (1. p. clxxvi), the feast of the Invention of the
Holy Cross (and therefore, by implication, an altar of Holy Cross at
Salisbury) is among those which are expressly named.
According to the printed Processionale, pp. 2—6, after holy water
has been prepared in choir after prime and chapter, but before terce, on
Sundays (or apart—frivatim—out of choir if it be a Double Feast,
and after terce or sext) the high altar is sprinkled; then the assistants,
then the rest of the clergy who pass up to the choir step for the
purpose, then the laity on either side of the presbytery are sprinkled.
The procession then moves from the choir step by the north door and
goes round the presbytery outside the choir (as we have seen in the
altar-washing, p. 74).
Then they pass ‘from the south part of the church past the font to
the cross, the boy with holy water and the boy with the processional
cross who are leading next after the verger or vergers, halting at the
step before the Rood.’ (p. 6, cf. Consuet. in Osmund Reg. 1. pp. 118, 134,
where the font is mentioned apparently on the south, and i. p. 120.)*
! Two images of St Lawrence were privileged by indulgences in the
diocese of Ely (Gibbons, Records, p. 410) in 1456.
2 The Rood no doubt was a crucifix, with figures of the B. Virgin and
St John. There were crosses in the Church, one over the high altar, with
two curtains. There were likewise **two curtains at the cross towards the new
doorway on the south." Osmund Reg. M. p. 134, in 1222. In his account of
Altars at Evesham Libro Evesham, p. 161, Mr H. A. Wilson mentions two
altars of St Cross in that Abbey Church, one erected about 1231 ‘7 navi
ecclesie, perhaps the altar before the Rood-loft': the other on the south of the
nave, in 1522. There were likewise two Altars of the Cross at Wells, Ear/y
History, C. M. Church, pp. 419—230. The plan given by Mr H. E. Reynolds
shows £Aree of this dedication.
3 “A ‘mortar’ was a wide bowl of iron or metal; it rested upon a stand or
branch, and was filled either with fine oil or wax [sometimes perfumed] which
was kept burning by means of a broad wick." Rock, CA. of our F. 111. 89 s.
* The meaning in such passages may be, that the procession was to go on
the south side of the font, to pass round it, and so return eastward, leaving it on
the right hand. ‘The Font’ is marked by the letter ‘V’ in the plan of 1733
ON THE ALTARS AND CHAPELS. 297
I am inclined to think that the altar of the rood was not on the
floor of the church but on the western ambo, pu/fitum, or rood-loft of
the choir, where the epistle and gospel were intoned at mass, in a
position like the organ-gallery of King's College Chapel, Westminster
Abbey or Lincoln Cathedral. To have a church open from end to end
was not considered an important object in olden days. And to have
an altar approached even by a winding staircase was no uncommon
thing. See Rock's important note on altars in chantry chapels and
oratories, at Oxford Cathedral and elsewhere, CA. of our F. 1M. p. 112 5,
and on the 'altare S. Crucis? at Canterbury described by Gervase
(Twysden, ii. p. 1293) as on the $u/fitum, and on the midst of it on the
part nearest the nave, 22d. iv. p. 211.
THE ALTAR OF THE FABRIC.
Among the bequests of Ro. de Karevill, Treasurer 1267, was a sum
‘ad depingendam fabricam circa crucem eleuatam.’ Sarum Charters,
- 344-
It was called the Fabric Altar, possibly because masses were here
said for the souls of benefactors to the building and repair funds of the
Cathedral Church, as was the case with the Works Chantry for
Founders and Benefactors at St Anne's Altar, Lincoln. But most
suitably the * Workman's Service’ was celebrated here in the 13th
century.
In the accounts of the Clerk of the Works, 1464, there is a small
entry of 3i$4. ‘de oblacione ad crucem die parasceues (;.e., I suppose,
the Ceremony of Creeping to the Cross) ad idem altare.
17. Altar of St Thomas the Martyr. (See above, pp. 78, 181, 212.)
Abp Thomas Becket was murdered at Canterbury 29 Dec. 1170,
and canonized in 1173.
The mass Laetabitur was said in 1472—3, I suppose! for the
weekly commemoration of St Thomas (which had been instituted as
the ‘secunda commemoratio, for Tuesdays as a rule, by a provincial
constitution under Roger Walden, Abp Arundel being in exile, in 1398).
(Wilkins Cozc. iii. 235. Johnson's Canons ii. S 49, ‘from the Oxford
copy’). A payment to Lawrence Man, the vicar celebrating the mass
‘Letabitur iustus ad altare sancti Thome’ is in the Clerk of the
Works’ account for 1539— 40.
The mass Cióavit for a weekly commemoration de Corpore Christi
was likewise appointed here, as one of the mssae currentes in 1472—3.
(Misc. et Stat. fo. 125, cf. Missale, p. 746*.) Thus again, ‘Rogero
Skynner, vicario celebranti missam Cz/auit, ad altare predictum" [;.«.
S. Thomae] occurs in Clerk of Works! account, 1539—40.
A special prose was sung at this altar after second evensong of
Holy Innocents, as an introduction to the festival of St Thomas, which
was on Dec. 29th. And his Image is mentioned. Prev. 1. pp. ccxlv—
vi, cf. cixxvi. Processionale, p. 20.
Mr Freemantle tells me that he can descry traces of a double
reproduced by Chambers as in the middle of the nave near the west door, just
east of the second bay from the west door. See our diagram, at p. 72.
! I do not feel confident about this. His proper mass in the Afissae
pp. 71, 805, is Gaudeamus omnes in Domino. Dickinson mentions in his
ntroduction p. xlv. that the Missals of 1512 and 1520 contain the ‘Com-
memoration of St Thomas’ near the end, but I do not find that he has given
his readers the benefit of the text thereof. The former of these editions may be
seen at Christ’s College, the latter at the University Library or at Emmanuel.

aumbry in the north wall here, where Wyatt filled it in and smoothed
It over.
Here one of the masses of Henry Blondesdon (and K. Edward 1I.)
was celebrated in 1348 (Corffe Reg. p. 11) and likewise 1430 (Haraing
Reg. fo. C. See above no. 14 fAltar of St Andrew, on the south).
There was a Chantry-House assigned to the Chaplains of the Blondes-
don Chantry opposite the west door of the Church. The implements
of the house belonged to the Chantry. (Hutchins Reg. fo. 76.)
28 Mar. 1357. There was a Chantry for John Nuggs (obit 10 July)
at the altar of St Thomas Martyr. (Muniment room, press 3, cupboard
1, box ‘ Vicars Choral’.)
10 Nov. 1450. Ethelyngton's Chantry in the Chapel of St Thomas
is mentioned. (Burgh Reg. p. 24.) See above, p. 186.
It appears from the fifth article of complaint at Bp Beauchamp’s
Visitation in 1468 that the last mass, which ought to be celebrated at
the altar of St Thomas, was wrongfully delayed till after the elevation
of the Sacrament at the High Altar. Also in art. 28 it was represented
that Robertus God, who ought to celebrate daily at the altar of
St Thomas, went off to say mass before Mr Andrew Holes (the
Chancellor of Sarum) in his private chapel! (Machon Reg.)
In 1473 Walter Maschall, senior altarist of St Thomas, died in
the Close and was buried ‘prope ostium paruum boreale.’ He is
described as having celebrated in the Chapel of St Thomas the Martyr
‘infra proximum introitum partis borialis ecclesie cathedralis Sarum
sita, (Afachon Reg. p. 239.) There can be no doubt therefore that
this chapel was at the extreme north of the great north-west transept.
In 1474 (May t5th), Thomas Yong, vicar choral, died, and was
buried on the morrow in the Cathedral burial yard *ante partem orien-
talem crucis, vocate vulgariter S¢ Thomas of Canterbury Crosse, inibi
situate.’ (Machon Rey. p. 241.)
7 July, 1220, the remains of Thomas Becket were solemnly Zra7ts-
lated at Canterbury by the Abp of Rheims in presence of K. Henry III.
and almost all the English bishops. Richard Poore, however, was
the only bishop who accompanied Stephen Langton and the Prior
when Thomas à Beckets tomb was opened preparatory to the
Translation. On 7 July, 1221, Abp Stephen Langton preached the
first anniversary sermon in memory of the Translation of St Thomas,
at Canterbury.
Mr Malden has extracted from Dunham Reg. fo. 555^, p. 110, a
curious list of Ornaments of the Altar of St Thomas, 18 Oct. 1389.

! My Brother-in-law Canon E. T. Leeke of Lincoln, who resides in the
Chancery, or Chancellor’s house, to the S. E. of Lincoln Minster, has restored
the antient chapel in that house, the old oak screen, piscina and aumbry,
remaining. It was re-dedicated by Bp Edward King on Easter Even, April
14th, 1900, the following form being inserted in the usual Office in use after a
restoration :—
ND to this Family, O Lord, and to all the Members of it, present or absent,
A and to all others who rejoice with them in the restoration of their Chapel,
vouchsafe, of Thy mercy, grace and perseverance in Faith, Hope and Charity,
a holy life, a peaceful death, rest in Paradise, a joyful Resurrection, a merciful
Judgement, and the perpetual vision of Thy Countenance in Thy perfect Glory ;
for the Love of Thy dear Son our Lord, to Whom, with Thee and the Holy
Ghost, be all praise and thanksgiving now and for evermore. Amen.

18. The Altar of St Edmund the Confessor. (See above, pp. 78,
212.)
Edmund Rich of Abingdon was Treasurer of Sarum at the time
when the first altars were dedicated, and probably from 1222 to 1234.
He held the prebend of Calne annexed to his dignity. In 1234 he was
consecrated Abp of Canterbury, and died 16 Nov. 1240. He was
canonized in 1246, as ‘St Edmund of Canterbury.’ (Wilkins, Conci/ia
I. pp- 694—6.)
A procession to his Altar, and the censing of it and of his Image, are
ordered in the printed Processionale (p. 160) at first evensong of his
festival (15—16 Nov.) The Breviary (III. p. 1053), providing for parish
churches, &c., says, his altar, ‘if there be one.’
29 July, 1448. *Cantaria dfii Walteri Scamell fundata in capella
sci Edmundi! (Burgh Reg. p. 5.) Was this merely the “ Benefactors’
Chantry? founded by him, or one for the repose of his own soul? He
had died in 1286. The position of St Edmund the Confessor altar,
(cf. Sarum Charters, p. 350) as the middle altar in the great north
transept, is pronounced certain in Brown's /ilustrated Guide to Salts-
bury Cathedral, 1885, p. 33.
19. The Relicks Altar, dedicated in honour of St John Baptist.
(See above, pp. 78—9, 212.)
According to the general directions of the printed service-book,
On the Vigil of St John Bapt. (23 June) after evensong a proces-
sion was made to the altar of this Saint. His altar was censed, and his
Image likewise. Processtonale p. 148. The Breviary, providing for
the requirements of parish churches &c., says simply, his altar, *if one
there be? Brev. 1. pp. mlxxvi.—vii. At II. p. 339 it mentions the
altar without reservation, but says nothing there of his Image, which
existed no doubt in the Cathedral Church. (There was once, I sup-
pose, a return wall here to the south, with a piscina, to serve for the triad
of altars, 17—19.)
Here was the chantry of Rob. Karevill or Carvyle, Treasurer, who
died 2 Sept. 1267. See Liber Evid. C fo. 1 no. i. for his will, and 76.
fo. 42765, no. 566, for his chantry ordinance, Jones Fast p. 334.
Sarum Charters, p. 342. He left 47 to buy fourteen silver phials or
cruets, so that each: of the seven altars might have two; he likewise
bequeathed his vestment chalice and dacinos minores to the altar of
Relicks, and his chest to keep the ornaments. Charters, p. 344.
The next Treasurer, Walter Scammel, became Dean and at last
Bishop, and died in 1286. It is said that he was buried ‘ex opposito
capelle Sa/ve, ante altare Reliquiarum (Mss. 17'^ cent. ‘Constitutiones’
and 18 cent. *FastiU). Also, that he founded a chantry for a daily

West grand leg (of the tower] under the present seating.’ This would tally
with our own suggestion that the Relicks Altar was the most southerly altar in
the great north transept, and consequently near the tower. But it is some
distance from ‘Salve.’

pp. 90, 312. See Sarum Charters, HN 350.) This last Canon Jones
Praces as no. 10 in his plan in the middle of the great North Transept.
Isewhere Canon Jones (p. 91) expresses his opinion that Bp Scam-
mel’s burial place, (opposite Sa/ve chapel, before the Relicks’ altar)
"would seem to have been on the north side of the Presbytery, near
the spot where now stands the ‘Audley Chapel" (It will remem-
bered that his masses were celebrated in 1472 at St Katherine's altar,
no. 4 above, in N.E. transept.)
A note by Canon Jones, in Brown's 7/ustrated Guide to Salisbury
Cathedral 1885, p. 75, suggests that Bp Scammel's tomb is to the N.E.
in the margin of the choir, and fronting the opening of the N.E. transept.
On the other hand we are told that in Patent 15 Edw. IV. (A.D.
1475) patent 5, membrane 7, is a grant Pro cantaria ad altare. Relt-
quiarum, vocata ‘Kymers Chantry.’ See Wilts Archaeol. Mag. xii.

to be buried in the Cathedral in the South Wall Jones Fas/i, p. 217.
(But it was in the sor£& wall—doreali—that he had permission to build
atomb. Cf. p. 228.)
10 Dec. 1462. Permission was given to the Dean Gilbert Kymer
to build himself a tomb *in muro boreali contigua capelle sanctarum
reliquiarum infra eandem ecclesiam? (Newton Reg. p. 5o.) For
Dean Keymer's soul, David Ragor, a stipendiary priest, was bound to
celebrate at the Relics Altar in 1468. (Bp Beauchamp's Visitation,
Machon Reg. fo. Ixxxix.)
An inscription in memory of Dean Keymer is mentioned in the
descriptions of Salisbury Cathedral in the 18th century, previous to
Wyatt’s alterations, next after Bp. Seth Ward's monument “against
the West wall of the South Cross ile" and a little before that of Bp.
J. Davenant “on the north wall.” It was in a window “under the
figure of a person in a gown” :—
“Int imaginem! Doctoris Keymer medici, quondam Cancellarii
Oxon., et postea Decani Sarum.
O Sancti medici, medico mihi ferte iuuamen,
Vt summus Medicus mentis mihi det medicamen :
Quo, sine fine, salute poli post perfruar. Amen.”
(Deserspfton of that Admirable Structure, the Cathedral
Church of Salisbury, 4to. 1774, p. 90. Cf. [Rawlinson's]
History and Antiquities of the same, 8vo. 1723.)
However, ‘Ethelyngton’s Chantry’ founded in the chapel of
St Thomas (see above no. 17) is mentioned in Burgh Reg. p. 24,
to Nov. 1450. The altar of Relicks appears to have been the last
altar visited in the 15!^ century aélucio altarium*. Consequently the
Respond sung here was not one of those nine from the ‘history’ 7s
monte Oliveti, borrowed from the mattins or fenebrae of Maundy Thurs-
day ( Brev.1. pp. dcclxxv—dcclxxxi), which were taken in turn, and begun
again when necessary, for the other altars, but it was the Respond

? This circumstance in itself might have left us free to place the Relicks
altar nearer no. 6 (Sa/ve), or anywhere else that seems more likely. Only
unfortunately it would leave the great N.W. transept with only two altars
instead of three. We can hardly place the Becket altar otherwhere than
where we have put it, at no. 17.

p.13.)
THE SUPERALTAR.
If Dean Keymer built himself a tomb in the place for which
permission was given, the tomb commonly called that of Bp Widville
is Keymers. (One authority, ! Constitutiones, says, indeed, that Bp
Widville was buried, not at Salisbury, but at Beauley!.)
It should be observed that in parish churches the altar-washing
finishes up ‘ad superaltare in vestióulo? (printed Processtonale, p. 63).
* Salisbury cathedral once owned a magnificent super-altar, set in
gold, as Dr Rock observes Ch. of our Fathers i. p. 256, where he gives
drawings of one which belonged to Cicognara. It probably contained
some relicks between the slab and the setting, and it was usually kept
in 1222 in ‘an iron-girt ark or chest’ under the charge of the Treasurer.
See Osmund Reg. 1. 136.
THE RELICKs.
There were relicks no doubt in or about the high altar where they
were censed (Osmund Reg. |. p. 152). But the collection mentioned
as belonging to the Church in another portion of our MS. (fo. 15° 19°)
in the middle of the 15*^ century was enormous. Besides our Lord
and the Blessed Virgin, 14 Disciples and two of the Holy Innocents
were said to have their relicks preserved at Salisbury, and out of the
other Saints (Martyrs, Confessors, and Virgins) which made up a total
of 331 no less than 207 had reputed relicks there. In 1538 Bp Shaxton
ordered his clergy to send all the relicks, with any writings attesting them,
to Ramsbury to be examined, so that any which were vain, paltry, or
counterfeit, might be eliminated. In 1536 no less than twelve with
relicks had been entered in the Treasurer's list. (Benson and Hatcher,
Hist. Salisbury, p. 239. Burnet Z/s/. Ref. Records to Bk. i11. no.
$9. Injunction 21.)
A Memoria or Suffrage de Religuiis is mentioned in Brev. I. pp.
ix, mcIxxxiv, 1I. p. 284, HI. pp. 465—6.
An iron-bound chest with relicks stood near the principal altar at
Old Sarum in 1222. Osmund Reg. 11. p. 136. About A.D. 1220— 25
Roger de Brinkworth gave an endowment for a candle to burn before
the relicks on festivals (ZZ. 1. p. 234.)
Relicks were carried in procession on Palm Sunday, and the casket
(capsula) was raised aloft at the west door of the church for the pro-
cession to enter under it. Osm. Reg. 1. pp. 120, 122. The Feast of
Relicks at Salisbury was changed from some date not recorded to
what was then considered to be a more convenient date, 17 Sept., cir.
1165. Again in 1319 it was finally transferred to a Sunday in July, —
that nearest after July 7%. See Brev. Sarum 11. p. 452. Osmu

ON THE ALTARS AND CHAPELS. 303
17 Kal. Octob. (=Sept. 15) was fixed for the Feast of Relicks in
o time of Bp Joceline and Abp T. Becket cir. 1162—70 Lib. Evid.
c. § 104. .
Bp Milner says that the A/tar of the Holy Relicks adjoined the
tomb of St Osmund at Salisbury in the Lady Chapel * on each side of
which [altar] were the chapels.of S¢ Stephen and of the Salve.” This
statement appears to have been derived (through an annotated copy of
Godwin De Praesulibus) from the Ms. Fasti. See above, pp. 219—22.
It remains to state such evidence as we can find for the existence
of a few altars at Salisbury in addition to those mentioned in Maundy
Thursday procession in 1445
It may be convenient to distinguish these less certain instances by
the use of roman numerals.
(xx) Altar of St John the Evangelist.
It is not quite clear whether or not at the time when the Sarum
rubrics were compiled there was an altar of St John the Evangelist in
the Cathedral Church at Salisbury, for at the procession and prose on
the first evensong of his festival the priests were directed to go ad
altare Apostolorum commonly called ‘St Peers altar? (no. 5 above).
But there was an /mage of St John there, which was censed. Brev.
I. pp. ccxiii, ccexiv. Proc. p. 16.
It appears, however, that an altar of St John the Apostle and
Evangelist was at one period introduced, although it is not mentioned
in our MS. of 1445. At least Canon Jones tells us that an ‘altarist of
St John Evang.’ is mentioned in Dunham Reg. 7 as having existed in
1387. It seems worth considering whether the ‘St John's altar? men-
tioned in the account of the burial place of William of York in 1256
(“Sad altare S. Fohannis coram altari apostolorum?) may have been
an altar not of John the Baptist but of the Apostle. But in any case
it is difficult to believe the statement (Jones 7as/i p. 89) that it was
‘on the south side of the choir,’ as the Apostles’ altar, mentioned in the
context as being near St John's altar, was on the north, as was that of
St John the Baptist likewise.
ohn Beer, Canon of Sarum, by his will in 1402, desired to be
buried before the altar of St John. (Browne Willis, cited by Jones,
Fasti, p. 372 #.) Altarists were appointed to the altar of St John
Evang. 1 June, 1472. (Mac&on Reg. fo. xlvii*.)
There is, moreover, one rubric in the Sarum Breviary, the rubric
concerning proses, I. p. clxxvi, which certainly seems to imply that the
Prose of St John the Evangelist was one of those ‘‘de guzbus altaria
habentur in Ecclesia Sarum.”
Dr Milner in his Déssertation on the Modern Style of altering
Ancient Cathedrals places ‘the Chapel of St John’ at no. 9, where I
think we must rather place that of St Mary Magdalene. See above,
p. 221.
(xxi) St Anne's Chapel. (See above, pp. 202— 3.)
This was probably in the Cathedral “ Pro cantaria ex fundatione
goannis Chambre bracentoris in capella Sce Anne.” Pat. 28 Edw. III.
(A.D. 1354), pat. t, membr. 6. Also Pat. 29, Edw. III. p. 1, m. 18, and
Pat. 30 Edw. III. p. 1, m. 20. At first sight it might appear that the
Chapel of St Anne might be that which is over the S. E. gateway of
the close.
Mr Malden, however, is convinced that the application of St Anne's
name to the chapel over the eastern gate of the close is comparatively
modern, and is derived from the street being in modern times called
* St Anne's Street" by a corruption from * Tanner street," by the.
304 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
inverse process of that which has made “tawdry” from “St Audrey’s
fair” at Ely.—In the Waltham Register, part iii. fo. 13, the chapel
above the close gate at Salisbury is mentioned (cir. 14—) as being dedi-
cated in honour of the B. V. Mary. But in Elizabethan times (Blacker
Reg., 93) it has begun to be known as “ capella S. Anne” in 1580.
(xxii) St Edward, King and Confessor. (See above, p. 203.)
At Bp Beauchamp's Visitation in 1468 (art. 27; Machon Reg.) it
was reported, *quod ad Altare sancti Edwardi, Cantaria ibidem, ex
collacione prioris ecclesie Ederosi!, occupatur per dom. Ric. Whitby
iuniorem presbiterum ; que ab antiquo per vnum vicariorum chori
occupata fuit, ut debent occupari! And
16 Nov. 1335. The Dean and Chapter owed £108 to the estate of
the late Walter Hervey Archd. of Sarum. His executors, by indenture
of this date, remitted the debt in consideration of his Obit being cele-
brated for 50 years, tertio nonas Julij (5 Jul.) vel proximo die ad hoc

Walter Hervey’s soul at the altar of St Edmund the King, in the Church
of Sarum, daily ‘post missam matutinalem, at the said prior's expense.
(Muniment Room, press 3, cupboard r, box ' Vicars Choral)
In 1348 (Feb. 23), as appears above in the list of Chantry Masses
(p. 227), the mass “pro anima T. de Bokton” was to be celebrated by
W. Chermynstre, chaplain, “ad altare S. Edwardi.
(xxiii) Chantry Chapel of the Annunciation. (See above, p. 205.)
The (Walter) Hungerford Chantry was, and Walter Lord Hunger-
ford’s tomb is, in the second arch westwards from the north-west
*grand leg” of the tower, i.e. in the third arch westward, as M* Malden
explains it, from the tomb of Bp Roger [de Mortivall t 14 Mar. 1329],
assuming that he was buried in the place marked as his grave on the
plan in Gough's Sepulchral Monuments, i.e. the first arch of the choir
on the left-hand side when entering the choir from the west.
Two chaplains celebrating ‘ad altare Annunciationis Beate Marie’
were mentioned at Bp Beauchamp's Visitation in 1468 (Machon Reg.
fo. Ixxxiv).
(vif) Altar of the Holy Innocents. (See above, pp. 203—4.)
I have said (p. 203) that it may be doubted whether there was a
special altar of the Holy Innocents at Salisbury.
However, the rubric in the Sarum Breviary (1. p. clxxvi) respect-
ing * Proses! at evensong certainly seems to imply that there was an
altar of Holy Innocents a4 .SaZzsóury, at which the prose was said ‘ pro
voluntate puerorum. But this is hardly decisive.
(xxiv) The Parish Altar. (See above, p. 204.)
It has been no uncommon thing for an old parish church to be
advanced to cathedral rank when a bishop's see has been erected in a
city, the parishioners in the old limits within the deanery of Christianity
still retaining their right to come to the old spot for baptism, marriage,
and other sacraments and sacramentals of the Church. Such was the
case with the parishioners of St Mary Magdalene at Lincoln until
Bp Oliver Sutton built them a new parish church hard by, so as to
1 Ivychurch, 3 miles S.E. of Salisbury, where was St Mary's priory of

avoid the inconvenience of their requiring access to the nave of the
minster at uncertain or conflicting times. Conversely, the collegiate
services of Peterhouse, Cambridge, were found incompatible with the
parochial services, when they were joint tenants of the church of
t Mary the Less, at Cambridge. At the present day at Truro
St Mary’s, and elsewhere, we have examples of a parochial altar main-
taining time-honoured rights and offices after the erection of a see.
These, at Truro, are now attached toa side-altar at the south-east, where
. a bay of the earlier (Marian) building has been re-erected. At Lincoln,
the altare parociiale was in the zave: so also at Ottery St Mary's in
1342 ; and certain masses for the Dead, said there in the nave, were
allowed to count as a capitular mass.
Among the chaplains named at the Visitation of Bp Beauchamp in
Sept. 1468 (Machon Reg. fo. \xxxix) one of two stipendiary priests
celebrating ad Altare Sancte Crucis is “Ds. Tho. Sutton presbiter
missam priorem summo mane celebrans quotidie, alias nuncupatus
presbiter matutinalis, siue capellanus parrochialis in ipsa ecclesia
cathedrali. ^ See the ‘Rood Altar,’ no. 16. And cf. ‘Morrow Mass
Altar of St Mary,’ no. (xxv).
An interesting entry bearing upon the subject of the Parish Altar
occurs in the Machon Register p. 75.
26 Nov. 1471. ‘Memorandum quod in crastina S. Katherine
virginis et martyris, In ecclesia cathedrali Sarum, Anno Domini ante-
dicto, Venerabilis vir M. Ricardus Whitby, Locum tenens prefatus,

(xxv) The Moming Altar, Morrow-Mass Altar, or Altar of
St Mary.
This appears to have been in the nave, probably on the north side,
opposite to the altar of St Andrew and the Holy Ghost. See no. 14
above.
(xxvi) Altar of the Eleven Thousand Virgins.
This altar was in the ‘north aisle’ of the Church.’
21 Oct. 1449. In Ecclesia Cathedrali Sarum in tempore celebra-
tionis misse xj. milia virginum et martirum solempniter celebrate
coram altare earundem virginum in ala dicte ecclesie boreali situato.'
Burgh. Reg. p. 76.
The mass of the 11,000 Virgins of Cologne (the companions of
St Ursula) is mentioned in the accounts of the Clerk of the Works
A.D. 1464, 1474 ; and in the Obit Kalendar in the MS. Consuetudines
their festival is entered (21 Octob.) as an occasion for a special allow-
ance ‘per Communarium, though (as we have mentioned on p. 240, 7.)
the entry appears in the 17th century transcript in a corrupt form,
* Missa in mane in festo t Marie virginis.t But in the earlier MS. it is
correctly written.
(xxvii) * Altare quod vocatur J'esrafi.?
In the account. of Bp Beauchamp's Visitation in 1461 (Newton
Reg. fo. vii) M* Malden observes this reference to an altar of “ our
Lady in Gesem”, or “Gesina.” I have no doubt that it was frequented
by “the wymmen that ben in our Lady bondis,” for whom prayer was
offered at the Bidding of the Bedes. See the Festiva//, printed by
W. S. C. 2 re)
306 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
Caxton, 1483, cited in H. O. C[oxeJ's book on Bidding Prayers p. 34.
D* Rock has a note on “Gesem, or Gesina," CA. of our Fathers iii.
p. 268; and he found the term in the “ Salisbury cathedral Accompts,
the manuscript of which is now in Jesus College Library, Oxford," as
well as in other authorities.
Whether it was identical with the Altar of St Mary and St Denys,
or with the altar in the chapel of the Annunciation in the Hungerford
Chantry in the nave, and whether or not these were themselves identical,
or again (what seems 4 frior? like enough), whether the altar called
* Jesianz was in some corner of the nave or other place apart, or again
whether it was possibly in the Chapel of St Anne, I have no evidence
to prove or to disprove any of these alternatives.
As to the etymology of the word gesem, Dr Joseph Wright, in his
English Dialect Dictionary (under the word “Gizzen” substantive,
obsolete, written also * gyzen’ or ‘jizzen’), cites the French ‘ gesine, a
lying in child-bed’ from Cotgrave,—‘to lie in jizzen,’ North Scotland,
Jameson's Dict., Forbes, Dominie (Buchan), 1785.—-‘ jizzen-bed,’ Ross,
Helenore (Aberdeen), 1768. Napier, Folk-lore of West Scotland, 1879.
—‘gyzen-clout’, Tennant, Papistry (Fife), 1827.
The form ‘altare Jesianum’, seems to me to indicate that in
England the word has come to be connected in thought with the Most
Holy Name. A ‘Jesus altar’ was at Durham, Norwich, etc. A ‘Jesus
Mass,’ or ‘Jesus Service’ at Lincoln, at St Peter’s, Marlborough, at
St Mary’s in the same town, and in many other places.
In an earlier record at Salisbury (18 March, 1341, in the Hemingsby
Register, p. 83) Mr Malden finds the word spelt after the older fashion.
There was then a difference between the Chapter and the Treasurer
(Walter de Wyvill) ‘super percepcione cere ad imaginem beate Marie,
que dicitur Gysine, et ad alteram imaginem eiusdem ad portam
occidentalem, que est extra, ex deuocione fidelium oblate.’
DEMOLITION OF THE ALTARS.
The Privy Council of K. Edward VI. gave instructions, about Nov.
19—20, 1550, to Bp Capon of Salisbury and all his episcopal brethren
* that all the altars...be taken away, and instead of them a table to be
set up in some convenient part of the chancel.” (Cardwell Docs.
Annals, p. 89 5. ed. 1839, —p. 101, ed. 1844.) Bp Ridley had taken
order against * bye-alters" in the Diocese of London, earlier in the
same year (sda. p. 83— p. 94). They were restored in the reign of
Q. Mary; but after the accession of Q. Elizabeth the demolition of
stone altars was again undertaken, and at Salisbury this was done in
the latter part of her 1st year. M* Malden finds in the accounts of
the clerk of the works, 15 Aug. 1559, an entry of payments “ for taking
down of aulters.” At this date there was no Bishop of Salisbury sur-
viving, Capon having died in 1557, and his successor Cardinal Pole
having declined the office. Francis Mallet, who had been Dean of
Lincoln, had never received the spiritualities.
In October in the same year the altar-stones, removed from their
places, were laid down in the pavement. At that date Jewel had been
elected Bishop, but he was not consecrated until the following January.
The plan of Salisbury Cathedral drawn by J. Coney for an edition
of Dugdale's Monasticon, about 1817—30, shows two holy Tables in
the Cathedral Church, one in the * Morning Prayer Chapel" (the
northern chantry in the N.E. transept), and the other at the extreme
east, in the Lady Chapel, apparently serving as the principal altar.
In the Churchwardens' accounts at Stanford in the Vale of White
Horse, Berks, for the year beginning 8 Apr. 1553, when Stanford was
in the Diocese of Salisbury, there is an entry after the accession of

The pulling down of the rood-loft was done in 1561 in a half-hearted
manner, for again in 1571 we find, ‘Item for helpe to pull downe y®

Peace and have ministered the Sacraments within these walls.
We thank thee for the Kings and Queens, the Princes and Rulers,
the Statesmen, Scholars, Soldiers, and Sailors, the Physicians and
Lawyers, the Merchants and Citizens, who have learned here thy
Word, and have loved thy House; and for the men of renown, of
whatsoever art or calling, who have been moved by thy HoLv SPIRIT
to adorn thy Sanctuary and the Place where thine Honour dwelleth.
For these and for all others, our fathers and brethren, whose bodies
are buried in peace and whose souls are resting with thee, we praise
and magnify thy name, beseeching thee to shed forth upon thy whole
Church in Paradise and on earth the bright beams of thy light and
heavenly comfort : and to grant that we who are alive this day may
follow the steps of those who have served and loved thee here, and

II. AT THE COMMUNION.
The Intrott.
Antiphon. Let thy priests, O Lord, be clothed with righteousness
and let thy saints sing with joyfulness. For thy servant David's sake
turn not away the presence of thine anointed.
PSALM cxxxil. Memento, Domine.
1. Lord, remember David : and all his trouble ;
2. How he sware unto the Lord : and vowed a vow unto the
Almighty God of Jacob ;
3. I will not come within the tabernacle of mine house : nor
climb up into my bed ;
4 will not suffer mine eyes to sleep, nor mine eyelids to slum-
ber : neither the temples of my head to take any rest ;
5. Until I find out a place for the temple of the Lord : an habi-
tation for the mighty God of Jacob.
6. Lo, we heard of the same at Ephrata : and found it in the
wood.
7. We will go into his tabernacle : and fall low on our knees
before his footstool.
8. Arise, O Lord, into thy resting-place : thou, and the ark of thy
strength.
9. Let thy priests be clothed with righteousness : and let thy
saints sing with Joyfulness.
10. For thy servant David's sake : turn not away the presence of
thine Anointed.
11. The Lord hath made a faithful oath unto David : and he
shall not shrink from it ;
12. Ofthe fruit of thy body : shall I set upon thy seat.
13. lf thy children will keep my covenant, and my testimonies
that I shall learn them : their children also shall sit upon thy seat for
evermore.

14. For the Lord hath chosen Sion to be an habitation for him-
self : he hath longed for her.
15. This shall be my rest for ever : here will I dwell, for I have a
delight therein.
16. I will bless her victuals with increase : and will satisfy her
poor with bread.
17. I will deck her priests with health : and her saints shall
rejoice and sing.
18. There shall I make the horn of David to flourish : I have
ordained a lantern for mine Anointed.
19. As for his enemies, I shall clothe them with shame : but upon
himself shall his crown flourish.
Glory be to the Father, &c.
The Collects.
O Lord God Almighty, Maker of all things and Giver of all good
gifts, Who didst put into the heart of thy servant Richard Poore to lay
the foundation stones of this Church, not for his own glory, but to the
glory and praise of our Incarnate Lord, and in honour of the Blessed
Virgin Mary his Mother, for the worship of thy glorious Majesty, the
preaching of thy Holy Word, the ministration of thy Holy Sacraments,
and the edification of faithful souls: We thank thee for the abundant
Blessing which thou hast granted in this place, and we beseech thee,
O Heavenly Father, to continue the same blessings to us and to our
children’s children for all generations yet to come, that this Church
may ever remain separate from all profane and unhallowed uses, and
may continually stand a witness to the people of thy truth and of thy
loving kindness, which thou hast shewn unto us in the Person of the
same thy Son our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
O Almighty God who hast built thy Church upon the foundation of
the Apostles and Prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the head corner
stone : Grant us so to be joined together in unity of spirit by their
doctrine, that we may be an holy temple acceptable unto thee ; through
Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
O Almighty God, who hast knit together thine elect in one Com-
munion and fellowship, in the mystical body of thy Son Christ our
Lord : Grant us grace so to follow the blessed Saints in all virtuous
and godly living, that we may come to those unspeakable joys, which
thou hast prepared for them that unfeignedly love thee ; through Jesus
Christ our Lord. Amen.
Epistle. Hebrews iii. 1—6.
Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, con-
sider the Apostle and High Priest of our Profession, Christ Jesus ; who
was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in
all his house. For this man was counted worthy of more glory than
Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honour
than the house. For every house is builded by some man ; but he
that built all things is God. And Moses verily was faithful in all his
house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be
spoken after ; but Christ as a son over his own house, whose house
are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope
firm unto the end.
The Gospel. St John x. 22— 30.
And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was
winter. And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch. Then

came the Jews round about him and said unto him, How long dost
thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ tell us plainly. Jesus
answered them, I told you, and ye believed not; the works that I do
in my Father's name, they bear witness of me. But ye believe not,
because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear
my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: and I give unto
them eternal life : and they shall never perish, neither shall any man
pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me is
greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's
hands. I and my Father are one.
This Collect shall be said before the Blessing.
O God of our fathers, who hast given us grace to meet together
this day to commemorate the mercies which thou hast shown forth in
this thy house from generation to generation: hearken we beseech
thee to the supplications of thy servants; and grant that all who in the
coming year shall enter this house to seek a blessing from thee may
feel with joy that thou hast heard their prayers and granted their
requests, according to thy perfect love and wisdom, through Jesus
Christ our Lord. Amen.
Recessional Psalm.
Antiphon. We wait for thy loving-kindness O! God in the midst
of thy temple.
PSALM xvi. Conserva me, Domine.
I. Preserve me, O God : for in Thee have I put my trust.
2. O my soul, thou hast said unto the Lord : Thou art my God,
my goods are nothing unto thee.
3. All my delight is upon the saints, that are in the earth : and
upon such as excel in virtue.
4. But they that run after another God : shall have great trouble.
$. Their drink-offerings of blood will I not offer : neither make
mention of their names within my lips.
6. The Lord himself is the portion of mine inheritance, and of my
cup : thou shalt maintain my lot.
7. The lot is fallen unto me in a fair ground : yea, I have a
goodly heritage.
8. I will thank the Lord for giving me warning : my reins also
chasten me in the night-season.
9. Ihave set God always before me : for he is on my right hand,
therefore I shall not fall.
10 Wherefore my heart was glad, and my glory rejoiced : my
flesh also shall rest in hope.
11. For why? thou shalt not leave my soul in hell : neither shalt
thou suffer thy Holy One to see corruption.
12. Thou shalt shew me the path of life ; in thy presence is the
fulness of joy : and at thy right hand there is pleasure for evermore.
Glory be to the Father, &c.

Heaven didst send forth into the world Thy prophets, evangelists,
pastors and teachers, for the perfecting of the Saints, for the work of

him how to commend the discipline of holy life to Kings and Princes:
Give us grace not only to be bold, but to have just cause for boldness,
even the fear and love of Thyself alone. Grant this, O Father, for the
sake of Thy dear Son, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.!
ST CLEMENT, Bishop of Rome, 23rd November.
[A.D. 100.]
LORD, Who in every age dost write names in Thy book of life,
and dost lead the meek of the earth to be followers of the Lamb
of God: Raise up to us teachers, like Thy servant CLEMENT, the
disciple of Thy first Apostles, who by their writings may instruct the
Church without thought of self, and open to us healing fountains of
repentance, peace and love: through the same Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
1 A suffrage in commemoration of St Hugh appears among Abp Benson’s
Prayers, Public and Private, 1899.
320 SALISBURY CEREMONIES AND PROCESSIONS.
A Commemoration of the faithful veparted tobítb map be
saiy on Gaster Chen after EChening 3Braper.
HEARD a voice from heaven, saying unto me, Write: From
henceforth blessed are the dead which die in the Lord: even so
saith the Spirit; for they rest from their labours.
| O82: in thy holy presence, we commemorate those of our brothers
and sisters in this place whom thou hast chosen to depart from
this world, whose souls are in thy holy keeping, especially those who
have been removed from among us during the past year:—
WT Then affer a short pause shall be said :—
Lord, have mercy upon us.
Christ, have mercy upon us.
Lord, have mercy upon us.
( UR Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name, Thy
kingdom come, Thy will be done, In earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread, And forgive us our trespasses, As we
forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into tempta-
tion; But deliver us from evil. Amen.
Thou art the King of Glory, O Christ:
Thou art the everlasting Son of the Father.
We believe that thou shalt come to be our Judge:
We therefore pray thee help thy servants whom thou hast redeemed
with thy precious blood.
Make them to be numbered with thy saints:
In glory everlasting.
O ye spirits and souls of the righteous bless ye the Lord:
Praise Him and magnify Him for ever.
MERCIFUL Father, who dost not willingly afflict the children
of men, but chastenest them for their profit: have pity on all thy
bereaved and sorrowing servants who either here or elsewhere call
upon thy name, and as thou dost sanctify human love and fellowship
here upon earth, so grant us a happy reunion with those whom we love
in thy eternal peace and joy, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
If I climb up into heaven thou art there:
Jf I go down into the Grave thou art there also.
MERCIFUL Father, by whose appointment the Saviour of the
world descended in spirit into the lower parts of the earth, that
he might fill all things, wherein he also, with fulness of mercy, went
and preached to the spirits in prison, that he might be the Lord both
of dead and living; grant that his kingdom may be perfected through-
out all thy universe visible and invisible, and that we may do our part
to leave no place however dark in this world unvisited by his presence
and his message of hope: through the same Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
—
A COMMEMORATION. 327
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High:
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
GOD, whose dearly beloved Son Jesus Christ abode awhile, as
on this day, with the spirits of the just in Paradise, visit, we pray
thee, thy saints at rest with the fuller brightness of his presence, and
with a continual increase of hope and joy; and of thy great mercy
grant that we may so pass the time of our sojourning here, that when
we go hence we may be united to them in peace; through the same
Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
I must work the works of Him that sent me while it is day:
The night cometh when no man can work.
RANT, O Lord, that we may all use this time of work while it is
called to-day, remembering gladly and thankfully those who have
gone before, who have stood by us and helped us in past days, who
have cheered us by their sympathy and strengthened us by their
example; that, when the time of our departure hence shall come, we
may have a good hope of rest with them in Paradise, and look forward
with them to a glorious resurrection to eternal life, in that time of
perfect fulness and liberty, which thou hast promised to thy children;
through Jesus Christ in whose life we live. Amen.
Lord, grant to all Thy faithful servants to rest in peace:
And to rise in glory. Amen.
[Hymn A. & M. 481, ‘Now the busy work is done,’
124, ‘Resting from His work to-day,’
235, ‘Oh! what the joy,’
or some other appropriate Hymn may be sung. ]

by the Antwerp book of 1626 (licensed ‘18 Feb. 1621’) mentioned overleaf,
which had a semblance of regard to the Sarum manual.

1 Cf. Conc. Trident. Sess. xxiv. cap. 1, De Reform. Matrim, “iuxta
receptum vniuscuiusque provinciae ritum." In 1636 an Ordo eapticandt was
issued at Paris 32°, PP. 135, “pro Anglia’ &c. (Brit. Mus. 3366. a. 36). In
? 1648 (‘m. dc. xlivii. T) another, 16°, pp. 113, ‘pro Hibernia, Anglia’ &c.
(Brit. Mus. 4326. a; Lambeth, 104. L. 29). And in 1657, another, at Paris,
16°, pp. 143, per Lud. de la Fosse, ‘pro Anglia’ &c. (Brit. Mus. 1018, a. 7;
and, I believe, Trin. Coll. Dublin). At a later period the words “ nonzzullis
adjectis ex antiquo Rituali Anglicano" were placed on the title pages of the
* Ordo administrandi Sacramenta...in Missione Anglicana, In the British
Museum there are copies dated 1759, 18123 (London) and 1846 (Prior Park
College Press, Bath). I have another, 12°, pp. 230+ 5, printed by Coghlan,
London, 1788, with authority dated 1789.

OBIT-KALENDAR
(with references to donors noted in the Inventory of 1536
and to Leland’s extracts from the Old Martyrology
Book, /£. iii. 92; iv. 176.)
The Bead-Roll in the MS. Processional (No. 148, still at Salisbury)
was written originally about A.D. 1445, and insertions were added from
time to time until 1558.
The Od:t List is derived from a medieval Kalendar of Sarum
Obits, of which there is an early seventeenth century transcript in the
MS. called * Constitutiones etc." in the 2nd Press, 3rd upper cupboard,
in the Muniment Room. 1 have distinguished the extracts from this
Obit- Kalendar by the mark 8.
Those entries which are expressly said, in any old document, to
have had a Chantry are marked with the sign @.

(IV) INDEX OF LITURGICAL FORMS IN THE SARUM
PROCESSIONALE.
*.* As some old editions of the Sarum /Processionale contain a ‘‘ Tabula”
or Index at the end, and as this was not printed by Dr Henderson who
took an early edition for his text in 1882, I have thought that it may be
useful to students if I include in my index not only the items which are
found in our Salisbury Ms. and in the body of the present volume, but
also those which are omitted in the Ms. These are printed in italtcs,
and marked ‘* H." followed by a reference to Dr Henderson’s edition.
[A few of the entries in the /aóu/a of 1555 have not been found by me
in our MS. or in Dr Henderson’s reprint.]
