This volume presents a kind of anticipated companion volume to the HBS edition of the Directorium Sacerdotum, a variety of ordinal or directory, which was privately compiled by Clement Maydeston, who though a priest held formally the post of -deacon- at the Brigittine Abbey of Syon, Middlesex (c. 1390-1456).
