Synopsis
Excerpt from Magna Vita S. Hugonis Episcopi Lincolniensis: From Manuscripts in the Bodleian Library, Oxford, and the Imperial Library, Paris
My acquaintance with this ms. Has been of some years' standing; and I had used my best endeavours, and made all enquiries in my power, but in vain, after some other ms. Which would supply the missing portion. Copies of this Life must once, and not very long since, have been very numerous; but I could not find, or hear of any other copy now in being, besides this in the Bodleian Library. A few months since, however, my kind friend, J. H. Parker, Esq., of Oxford, discovered for me, in the middle of a ms. Volume of miscellanies in the Imperial Library at Paris, a portion of this Life of St. Hugh, which now enables me, I am most glad to say, to present the whole Life complete.
