Contents Note

The volume contains several sermons as well as miscellaneous excerpts and notes of academical disputation. The Sloane collection cataloguer identifies ff. 2r-29v as sermons, but the sections resemble sermon notes or meditations on biblical texts more than sermons.

Material Features

The volume is written entirely in Haydocke's small, neat, and regular hand and his signature appears several times on the fly-leaf: "will haydocke: his booke." The contents are mounted on boards within a Sloane collection standard binding with signature stamp on the cover.
