DescriptionThis is a Latin translation of the original sermon preached before Edward VI in 1549. It is conjectured by Hastings (see 'Other Note') that this text is a translation by one 'Bank' of the extant printed text, or a transcript of the sermon by an unknown listener ('Sermo Latymeri, Latini p[er] Banku[m]', p. 360).
