[1582] Fascic. Zizan. 133-180. That the work was originally a lecture is proved by MS. in Corp. Chr. Coll. Cambr. No. 331, p. 583 (sec. XV), ‘Explicit confessio magistri et fratris Johannis Tassyngton (sic) de ordine Minorum et S.T. doctoris, quam edidit, et in scholis fratrum minorum Oxoniis determinando promulgavit ... A. D. 1381.’
[1583] Fasc. Zizan. p. 133, note 2, &c., and Eulog. Hist. ut supra. Mr. Shirley says, ‘Tyssyngton has evidently never seen most of the books he quotes; and the references are often false.’ He attempts to give the general sense of the passages he refers to, apparently from memory.
