Pater Noster

  1. The script is modeled after an English chancery hand from the reign of Henry II (1154–1189). For the exemplar, a notification of Henry II that he has exempted the monks of the cathedral priory of Canterbury from tariffs on the import of an annual allowance of one hundred measures of wine presented to them by Louis VII of France, see T.A.M. Bishop, Scriptores Regis (Oxford: Clarendon, 1961), no. 132, pl. 35.

    Pater Noster qui es in Caelis. Sanctificetur
    Nomen tuum. adveniat Regnum tuum. fiat
    voluntas tua. sicut in Caelo et in Terra;
    Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie. et
    dimitte nobis Debita nostra. sicut et nos dimit-
    timus Debitoribus nostris; et ne nos inducas
    in Tentationem. sed libera nos a Malo. A[men].
