[17] A ninth century catalogue of St. Gall mentions thirty-one
volumes and pamphlets in the Irish tongue--Prof. Pflugk-Harttung,
in _R. H. S._ (N. S.), v. 92. Becker names only thirty, p. 43. At
Reichenau, a monastery near St. Gall, also famous for its library,
there were “Irish education, manuscripts, and occasionally also Irish
monks.” “One of the most ancient monuments of the German tongue, the
vocabulary of St. Gall, dating from about 780, is written in the Irish
character.”

[42] At vero hoc audiens Colcius tempus et horam _in tabula_

pólaires or tablets (_Leabhar Breac_, fo. 16-60; Stokes (M.), 51).
The boy Benen, who followed Patrick, bore tablets on his back
(_folaire_, corrupt for _pólaire_).--Stokes (W.), _T. L._, 47. Patrick
gave to Fiacc a case containing a tablet. _Ib._ 344. An example of
a waxed tablet, with a case for it, is in the Museum of the Royal
Irish Academy. The case is a wooden cover, divided into hollowed-out
compartments for holding the styles. This specimen dates from the
thirteenth or fourteenth century. Slates and pencils were also in use
for temporary purposes.--Joyce, i. 483.

_sacculi_ (Lat.), and _tiag_, or _tiag liubhair_ or _teig liubair_
(Ir.). There has been some confusion between _pólaire_ and _tiag_, the
former being regarded as a leather case for a single book, the latter
a satchel for several books. This distinction is made in connection
with the ancient Irish life of Columba, which is therefore made to
read that the saint used to make _cases_ and _satchels_ for books
(_pólaire ocus tiaga_), _v._ Adamnan, 115. Cf. Petrie, _Round Towers_,
336-7. But the late Dr. Whitley Stokes makes _pólaire_ or _pōlire_,
or the corruption _folaire_, derive from _pugillares_ = writing
tablets.--Stokes (W.), _T. L._, cliii. and 655. This interpretation
of the word gives us the much more likely reading that Columba made
_tablets_, and _satchels_ for books.

[48] Mr. Allen, in his admirable volume on _Celtic Art_, p. 208,
in this series, says cumdachs were peculiar to Ireland. But they
were made and used elsewhere, and were variously known as _capsae_,
_librorum coopertoria_ (_e.g._ ... librorumque coopertoria; quædam
horum nuda, quædam vero alia auro atque argento gemmisque pretiosis
circumtecta.--_Acta SS._, _Aug._ iii. 659c), and _thecae_. Some of
these cases were no doubt as beautifully decorated as the Irish
cumdachs. William of Malmesbury asserts that twenty pounds and sixty
marks of gold were used to make the coopertoria librorum Evangelii for
King Ina’s chapel. At the Abbey of St. Riquier was an “Evangelium auro
Scriptum unum, cum capsa argentea gemmis et lapidibus fabricata. Aliae
capsae evangeliorum duae ex auro et argento paratae.”--Maitland, 212.
In 1295 St. Paul’s Cathedral possessed a copy of the Gospels in a case
(capsa) adorned with gilding and relics.--Putnam, i. 105-6.

[60] B. M. Reg. I. E. vi. may be a part of the Gregorian Bible, or the
second copy of the Gospels mentioned above, if this second copy is not
Corpus Christi, Camb. 286. Corpus C. 286 is a seventh century book,
certainly from St. Augustine’s; it was probably brought to England in
the time of Theodore, and though it may be one of the books referred
to above, is, therefore, not Augustinian. The Psalter bearing the
silver images is “most likely” Cott. Vesp. A. 1, an eighth century
manuscript; it is, therefore, not Augustinian, although it may be a
copy of the original Psalter given by Gregory.--James, lxvi.
[61] Known as Codex E, or the Laudian Acts (Laud. Gr. 35). Bede refers
to a Greek manuscript of the Acts in his _Retractationes_; possibly
this is the actual copy. The last page of the book bears the signature
“Theodore”; did Archbishop Theodore bring the volume to England? “It
is at least safe to say that the presence of such a book in England
in Bede’s time can hardly be entirely independent of the influence of
Theodore or of Abbot Hadrian.”--James (M. R.), xxiii.

[72] Ceolfrid, Benedict Biscop’s successor, added a number of books
to the library, among them three copies of the Vulgate, and one of
the older version. One copy of the Vulgate Ceolfrid took with him to
Rome (716) to give to the Pope. He died on the way. The codex did not
go to Rome; now, it is in the Laurentian Library, Florence, where it
is known as the Codex Amiatinus. The writing is Italian, or at any
rate foreign, so it must have been imported, or written at Jarrow by
foreign scribes. This volume is the chief authority for the text of
Jerome’s translation of the Scriptures.
[73] _H. E._, v. 24.
[74] Bede frequently quotes Cicero, Virgil, and Horace; usually
selecting some telling phrase, _e.g._ “caeco carpitur igni” (_H.
E._ ii. 12). In his _De Natura rerum_ he owes a good deal to Pliny
and Isidore. In his commentaries on the Scriptures he displays
an extent of reading which we have no space to give any idea of.
His chronologies were based on Jerome’s edition of Eusebius, on
Augustine and Isidore. In his _H. E._ he uses “Pliny, Solinus,
Orosius, Eutropius, Marcellinus Comes, Gildas, probably the _Historia
Brittonum_, a _Passion of St. Alban_, and the _Life of Germanus of
Auxerre_ by Constantius”; while he refers to lives of St. Fursa, St.
Ethelburg, and to Adamnan’s work on the Holy Places. Cf. Sandys, i.
468; _Camb. Lit._, i. 80-81. Bede also got first-hand knowledge:
the Lindisfarne records provided him with material on Cuthbert;
information came to him from Canterbury about Southern affairs and
from Lastingham about Mercian affairs. Nothelm got material from the
archives at Rome for him.

[90] Most old English poems are preserved in unique manuscripts,
sometimes not complete, but in fragments; two fragments, for example,
were found in the bindings of other books.--Warton, ii. 7. In 1248,
only four books in English were at Glastonbury, and they are described
as old and useless.--John of G., 435; Ritson, i. 43. About fifty
years later only seventeen such books were in the big library at
Canterbury.--James (M. R.), 51. A striking illustration of the disuse
of the vernacular among the religious is found in an Anglo-Saxon
Gregory’s _Pastoral Care_, which is copiously glossed in Latin, in
two or three hands. This manuscript, now in Corpus Christi College,
Cambridge, No. 12, came from Worcester Priory.--James^{17}, 33.

“Regraciamur vobis quod Librum Sermonum Beati Augustini pro nobis,

retinuistis, nobisque et condiciones ejusdem significastis et precium.
Et, quia ipsum Librum habere volumus, lx solidos sterlingorum Magistro

[293] I have to thank my friend Mr. Tapley Soper, F.R.Hist.S., for his
willing help in sending me information about this library.
Our account of church libraries will appear inadequate if it is not
borne in mind that we do not propose to go beyond the manuscript age.
An excellent account of modern church libraries is given in _English
Church Furniture_, in this series. Also see Clark, 257.

[313] In the fifteenth century the bishops of Wells were good friends
of learning: Skirlaw gave books to University College, Oxford; Bowet
left a large library; Stafford gave books; Bekynton was the companion
of the most cultivated men of his time. Dean Gunthorpe is well known
as a pilgrim to Italy, who returned laden with manuscripts (see p.
192).
