This volume is an edition of a single manuscript, Glasgow Hunterian v.8.14, compiled in the early thirteenth century. The modern reader looking through these poems will be struck by the variety of their subject matter. Many of the poems deal with well-known themes from classical mythology, Ovid's 'Metamorphoses' being the favourite source.Bruce Harbert (editor)
