(old) - Penkridge - Easter The sermon begins "It is Easter day abroad, and methinks it is so in the text". According to Old Style dating this sermon was preached 10 days before Easter in Catholic countries, so the designation of this as an Easter sermon is not literal.

Other Note

Preaching location is conjectural. In the margin above some sermons in lighter ink is written "P. Penk." Subsequent sermons elaborate this shorthand so that "P." is sometimes "Preached at" and "Penk." is sometimes "Penkridge." This fragment contains no information about preaching location. Two leaves appear to have been removed between p. 158 and p. 159. Precise date is unknown.
