  1. (on paper) Fol. 1. 'Dialogue in aduentum Reginæ ... Elisabethæ gratulatorius, inter eandem Reginam & Dominum Robertum Dudlæum Comitem Leicestriæ & Oxoniensis Academiæ Cancellarium', a Latin verse dialogue with preface, composed by 'Thomas Nelus hebraicæ linguæ Professor [regius], Oxoniæ', and illustrated with interesting pen-drawings of the Colleges and University buildings of Oxford, the originals of which were by John Bereblock: at fol. 19v is a 'Gratulatio hebraica' by Neale on the same occasion, which was no doubt in 1566. The drawings have been often reproduced, as in 1713 by Hearne, in 1728 by Whittlesey, and in 1882 by Guggenheim. One is the only view of Duke Humphrey's, now the Bodleian, Library before the Arts and Selden Ends were added (fol. 16v). See below.
  2. (on parchment) Fol. 22. 'Oratio habita coram illustrissimo Rege Henrico Septimo. Cantabrigie', here without author's name but known to be by Dr. John Fisher, Bishop of Rochester, perhaps in 1506, when Fisher was chancellor of the University of Cambridge, beg. 'Etsi nullis unquam verbis': printed by Hearne in his editions of Leland's Itinerary, vol. 2.
  3. (on paper) Fol. 32. 'Primi uenticinque Salmi dí Dauid in uarie rime italiane', preceded by an epistle dedicatory to sir Thomas Bodley by Alberico Gentile 'In Oxfort . il primo giorno dell'. [15]81'. The verses were by 'un mio parente', i. e. perhaps Giovanni Valentino Gentile: beg. 'Beato l' huom, che nella uia degl' empi'.
