Description

First published in 1902, this volume contains an extensive, technical scholarly introduction, followed by three Middle-English versions of the Rule of St.

Benet along with the Northern Lansdowne Ritual on the reception of novices and the Vespasian Ritual of making a nun.

As St Benet is the Medieval English version of St. Benedict, the original version of this text dates back to the 6th century.
