Compilation of Latin Play Prologues, Epilogues and other Epigrams
The bound volume predominantly contains prologues and epilogues for Latin Plays from 1750-1835, although with a number of years missing. The texts are largely contained in the printed volumes Lusus Alterii Westmonasteriensis although there are some differences between the manuscripts and the published versions. Some pencil notes on the manuscript identify the authors of the texts.
The loose pages predominately contain epigrams written for and recited at the Election Dinner. Some are replicated in the 'Great Book'.
