St. Jeremie's 15 Tokens before Doomsday. WITH LAMENTACIO ANIMARUM, WHAT OUR LORD SHALL DO AND SAY ON THAT DOOMSDAY; AND A SONG OF JOY AND BLISS, TO PRAISE THAT SWEET DEW, CHRIST.

(See other englisht copies of these '15 Tokens' attributed to St. Jerome, in my Early English Poems (Philolog. Soc. 1862), p. 7-12, and p. 162-4 (from Metrical Homilies, ed. Small, before publication); my Hymns to the Virgin and Christ (E. E. T. S., 1867), p. 118-125; Dr Morris's 'Hampole's Pricke of Conscience' (Philolog. Soc.), p. 135, l. 4738, &c, and Cursor Mundi (E. E. T. Soc.), p. 1282-1298, Part IV, and p. 1616-18 (from the Edinburgh MS), in the Appendix, Part V; Mr T. Wright's Chester Plays (copid by Geo. Bellin in 1592), vol. ii. 147-9; and in the same vol., p. 219-21 (from Harl. MS. 913, ab. 1309 A.D.), and p. 222-4 (from Harl. 2255); Mr Small's Northern 'Metrical Homilies', p. 25-6, given also in Morris and Skeat's Speci|mens of Early English, 1298-1393, p. 83-5; Sir David Lyndesay's Monarche, book iv, l. 5462 (in Skeat's Specimens, 1394-1579, p. 254-6), &c, &c, &c. Old Friesic has a version of these 15 Tokens, says Mr Skeat: see Richtofen, Friesische Rechtsquellen, p. 130. Mr Small says that 'no copy of the original is to be found in the Benedictine edition of Jerome's Works'; and Mr Wright states that 'others say they are first found in the Prognosticon futuri seculi of Julianus Pomerius, a theologian, who died in the year 690'.)

The Song that follows the Signs here, has pretty bits and good words in it.
