Abstract
Abstract:Beinecke MS 1085, an unprepossessing fragment from a fifteenth century compendium of medical recipes in Middle English, has not at the time of writing ever been transcribed or thoroughly examined. In this paper, I aim to rectify that by transcribing the fragment and producing a thorough palaeographical summary covering its physical features, what little of its history can be found out, its script and dialect, and some of the more notable features of its content.
