[329] I use a transcript of the Exeter MS. collated by Sir F. Madden. Additional MSS. No. 9067. It is printed in Latin and Saxon from a old MS. In the Bodl. Auct. D. 2. 16. fol. 1 a; in Dugdale's Monasticon, vol. ii. p. 257, which varies a little from the Exeter transcript.
[330] Bec is the plural of boc, a book.
[331] See Dr. Lingard's Hist. Anglo Sax. Church, vol. i. p. 307, who cannot deny this entirely; see also Lappenberg Hist. Eng. vol. i. p. 202, who says that the mass was read partially in the Saxon tongue. Hallam in his Supplemental Notes, p. 408, has a good note on the subject.
