  1) Evangelia et Epistolae Dominicorum Fesorumque dierum, eo quo in templis legi ordine conseuerunt. 1564. Print.
  
  A Greek lectionary, comprised of passages from the gospel and epistles which are organized as readings for specific days in the liturgical calendar. 
  
  
  2) Sermons. Late 16th-17th century. Manuscript.
  
  A series of 13 handwritten sermons and notes for sermons. The dating is difficult, as there are no concrete dates given in the sermons or notes, but the scribe makes frequent reference to the mendacious Romish prelates, the false prophets of Rome, the corruptions of the corrupt Catholic church, etc., so we might still be in the earlier side of the Elizabethan Reformation.
  
  
  
  The manuscript leaves are slightly larger than the print leaves, and made from different paper. They are interleaved with the print leaves, mostly one-to-one but not always holding this pattern.
  
  There are also notes for the sermons written on some of the print leaves.
  
  Several of the print leaves show interaction with the content of the print book, i.e. the interlinear translation of the Greek into Latin.
  
  There are some blank leaves scattered throughout the book.
  
  The writing on the manuscript leaves continues right into the gutter, so would have been impossible to write if the leaves were already bound as blank paper, with the print book.
   
  
  Question: Why were the manuscript leaves with their sermon texts and notes, interleaved with the print lectionary book?
