Contents:: Hugo Primas, Hildebert of Lavardin, etc. — Late 12th or early 13th century.

Titus A. xx, argues that the manuscript was almost certainly written in England. The ‘Frenchness’ of MS. Rawl. G. 109 is explained by the fact that it is a fairly faithful copy of a lost anthology compiled some forty or fifty years earlier, probably in France.
