Gneuss, Handlist of Anglo-Saxon Manuscripts (G. 546)

Beda, Vitae S. Cuthberti (prose Vita incomplete) : s. x/xi and xi1, CaA.

Ker, Catalogue of Manuscripts Containing Anglo-Saxon (K. 301)

Glosses, s. xi. Two glosses to Bede's verse life of St Cuthbert. The MS. is in English caroline minuscule, s. x/xi (ff. 1-23: quires 1-3) and s. xi1 (ff. 24-27). The glosses are on ff. 2v and 5, 'efen' (for 'efenhlytta'?) and 'sæ', referring respectively to 'consors' and 'pontus' in the text (cf. W. Jaager, Bedas metrische Vita sancta Cuthberti (Palæstra 198), ll. 26, 155).

The manuscript, which contains also the prose life (ff. 28-77), was given to the Bodleian by Sir Henry Savile in 1620.
