Footnotes

  • 1. On the back of the volume is the usual modern description in Italian: ‘Calisto iii. 1457, Anno 3. Lib. 1.’ A flyleaf has the contemporary description: ‘Primus de beneficiis vacantibus et prebendis vacantibus anno iii°, domini Calisti pape iii.,’ above which is: ‘R(ecipe) N., P. de Varris’ (i.e. the name P. de Varris is again written in full), and below that again:R(ubricatus) per N. de Tongues.’ A similar contemporary description occurs, as usual, on the bottom edge of the volume. There are ff. i–cccxiiii. + 1 of text.
  • 2. Ill written.
  • 3. filiorum suorum.
  • 4. suorum salutis status et honoris immemor, dei timore postposito ac pudicicie laxatis habenis, publicus et notorius fornicator existens, excommunicacionis et suspensionis sentenciam per loci diocesanum contra huiusmodi concubinarios jurisdictiom sue subjectos auctoritate ordinaria monicione previa generaliter latam incurreretemere non expavit. This passage explains the meaning of ‘fornicator’ in these Irish mandates.
  • 5. i.e., presumably Limerick, that being the last diocese mentioned.
