The Ilbi.uF''' ..r..
Tie religious order. bad TIC monopoly
almost Of tac copying Of hu""-, for The
number ol HyIutn possessing ID" requisite
skill and learning was very united some
uric.-. ,ucu ~, the tariiu.iau monks.
mace ia one of their ch;ci duties, r 'uY
drpcudrd entirely on Ne i"y ocr'Ftd
from their iabors to keep tb"m .ucP"nd
rut If ajj charity. In every abbey nr
other re- iigious house the inmates Wtr" uj-
lu,t,d certain tasks, varying acc rhing 10
their mental and physical quail cations.
but the task that was most highly Is
tccmcd. and which protidcd constant cm-
piu, mcnt was copying books.
4 room called the scriptorium was
specially set apart for the monks topur-un
their labors in, aud here they would meet
every day for certain number OF hours.
These rooms were sometimes furnished
with stone or wooden desks hNcd 10 the
walls round the room, but before desks
we're introduced the only supports on
which the copysts could place their books
were their knees There was always Il
fixed number of tranSCibcrs, and when
ever Il vacancy occurred through death or
any other cause, it was filled up imme-
diatcly. 1t was usual to intrI,t the copy
ing Of books for the choir, and those not
demanding great skill. to boys and
noviccs: but mis,alS, bibles and hooE, re-
ql.iring Tie highest skill and learning were
only executed by priest, Of mature years
and great experience.
The monks were cnioincI to proceed
with their laOors in strict silence, that
their attention might not he distracted
from their work, and To avoid, as far ~
possible any errors in grammar, spelling,
or punctuation. In some cases authors
prcfNcd to their works solemn adiurations
10 those whose duty it was to tranScribe
them. For instance lrcn~us wrote Il
dmrc thee who shall tran~Cribc this book,
10y our Lord Jesus Christ and hy His
glorious coming 10 Judge the quick and
the deed. that thou compare what 'hou
transnribc>t, and correct it carefully a.
cording to the copy from which thou tran
scrbcNt, and that thou also annex a copy
of this nd uration to what thou hast writ
ten. Every possible prccaution was
taken to insure strict accuracy in the
copies and it was the duty Of certain
monks to examine and compare faithfully
every copy with the original. Other
monks, again, had to busy themselves
with illuminating the copies and others
with binding them.
