AUTOGRAPH (?) PREACHING MANUSCRIPT. [SERMONS] the twenty-one sermons written in ink in a clear and easily legible hybrid secretary-italic hand on 542 leaves, paginated, the contents and textural references listed in "A catalogue of the Sermons contained in this Boke" including The Godlie Mans Guide, The husbands happiness, A Muzzle for ye mouth and Whordoms Wages, each ending with 1p. invocation, catchwords, references and marginalia, several with preaching dates from the 1630s to 1650s, preceded and followed by two p. of prayers (one of those at the front missing) including one for Charles [I] and Prince Charles, the latter`s name struck out presumably during the Commonwealth, and THE WHOLE BOOK OF PSALMES. Collected into English meeter by Thomas Sternhold, John Hopkins and others, black letter, text in two columns, title within woodcut border, large woodcut initial letter at head of first psalm, some with music, ending with a final MS leaf of "The Psalmes Digested into a breefe Table... accordinge to... Mr Beza", London: Printed for the Companie of Stationers, 1620, two works in one volumne, 8vo (195 x 147mm) contemporary calf centrepiece binding (worn, frayed and wanting spine) tooled in blind with frame and fleurons Provenance: B[arnabas] Pool, Rector of Brailsford (ownership inscription on end pastedown). According to Lichfield Diocesan Registers, Barnabas Pole was given the living of Brailsford, Derbyshire on 18 June 1668, which he held until his death on 6 December 1698. On his monument in the church, his name is spelt Poole and the stone lintel over the door of the early 16th c (former) rectory at Brailsford is inscribed "Restored by/Rev`d J G Croker/1883/Rev`d B Pool/1682". Several of the sermons share titles with those of Immanuel Bourne (1590-1679) whose published sermons appeared between 1617 and the mid 17th c. A preacher at St Christopher`s Church, London, he held the living of the nearby parish of Ashover from 1622 until his pronounced sympathies for the Puritan cause compelled him to return to London on the outbreak of the Civil War in 1642. There he was appointed preacher at St Sepulchre`s Church. Whilst it is conceivable that the present lot is Bourne`s own preaching manuscript, Pool could well have obtained it from a scribe, who carefully copied at least some of Bourne`s published sermons. Hardly any manuscript material by Bourne is known to have survived other than two hastily written letters to Sir John Gell, 1st Baronet (1593-1671) of Hopton Hall (Derbyshire Record Office) and his signature on a document dating from the end of his life (British Library).
