Excerpt from Anglo-Norman Poem on the Conquest of Ireland by Henry the Second: From a Manuscript Preserved in the Archiepiscopal Library at Lambeth Palace The poem which is here printed is taken from a manuscript in the library of Lambeth Palace, where it is marked 596. The volume is written upon vellum by a hand of the fourteenth century, in double columns, and is unfortunately mutilated both at beginning and end. It belonged formerly to Sir George Carew, who made a very incorrect analysis of it, which was printed by Harris in his Hibernica.
