The material in this volume appears to constitute much of Robert Cawdrey, A Treasurie or Store-House (London, 1600), although the printed text is much longer and does not identify any preachers.

Description

The notetaker (thought to be Robert Cawdray) has filled the volume with quotations, divided into small boxes, from sermons preached by various preachers. The preachers named include Henry Robinson, Provost of Queens College; Richard Kilby; Giles Tomson (later Bishop of Gloucester); Adam Hill; Edward Hutchins; William Tyndal; Thomas Dorman; and Leonard Wright.
