English: The Historia Anglorum, or "History of the English", by Matthew Paris (d. 1259), a history of England covering the years 1070-1253. Begun in 1250 and perhaps completed around 1255, this comprises folios 10 to 156 of the manuscript. Bound with it is the final part of Paris's Chronica majora ("Larger Chronicle"), covering the years 1254-1259 (folios 157-218), and prefatory material including an itinerary from London to Jerusalem and tinted drawings of the kings of England. All is in Paris's own hand, apart from folios 210-218 and 154v-156v, which are in a hand of the scribe who has added a note of Matthew Paris's death (f. 218v).
