- a widely read book. The text "Nursed on the Bible" was
one of the chief later medieval Biblical studies & was
printed 23(4) times bet. 1470 & 1498. It is a Biblical

Towards Holy Scripture. Composed to remedy the ignorance of Monks.

H. Animininsus, proved too difficult , & Proctor abandoned
the attempt to arrange them in chronological order.
