A theological treatise,

A theological treatise in the form of a dialogue between father and son. A reference by the son (p. [312]) to Lhuyd's Archaeologia Britannica (1707) - 'you told me yor father was a subscriber to that undertaking'- gives the dialogue an eighteenth century date. It appears to be an original composition, and there is a rough index at the end.

Commentary on Aquinas

Commentary by an unidentified author on the Prima Pars, the Secunda Secundae and Tertia Pars of St. Thomas Aquinas' Summa Theologiae, written in two fine hands of the early-seventeenth century.
Most of the manuscript is written in a secretary hand, whilst two portions are written in a mixed hand (ff. 213-225 verso, 412-424 verso). The commentary may be an example of the manuscript text books supplied to university students during the early-seventeenth century, and perhaps related to other similar works published on the continent during the same century (not seen).
