Digitized by VjOOQIC This north walk was the living-room and study of the monastery. The books in most frequent use were kept in a case which stood in a shallow recess still to be seen in the transept wall. Others were stored in two capacious closets on either side of the chapter-house door.
Every year, at the beginning of Lent, all the books of the monastery were spread out on a carpet on the floor of the chapter-house, and a general accounting was had. A roll was called of brothers and of boo...ks. Each monk rose at the sound of his name, produced the book which had been assigned to him the year before, and returned it, humbly confess- ing if he had not read it through. Then the books were newly distributed and charged. At Ripley Castle, bound in an octavo volume, are several of the Fountains books: a Latin grammar, some sermons and some music, and a paraphrase of Ovid, in which that irre- sponsible writer is made to serve as a 7.8 Digitized by VjOOQIC mediaeval moralist. There is also a fragment of a bookonmedecine, to which they might profitably have added, as at Meaux Abbey, a book on eating, — De Edendo.
