The former include Wycliffite New Testaments; Emmanuel College's complete Wycliffite Bible; Richard Rolle's \u003ci\u003eCommentary on the Psalms\u003c\/i\u003e in Sidney Sussex College, and, in Trinity Hall, the \u003ci\u003eTwelve Conclusions of the Lollards\u003c\/i\u003e in a splendid manuscript designed for presentation to Richard II.
