221pp., 4to, recased, marbled boards, worn.. A relation of "A Book of the Valuations of all the Ecclesiasticall Preferments in England and Wales entituled Nomina  & Valores . . .(Published in 1680). Comparison and contrast discussed later.  This manuscript comprises: an index (2pp, leaf detached) listing Bishops, major landowners, and Royal Patronages (usually in Counties); listings of Preferments in the Patronage of the . . . (Archbishop of Canterbury and other Bishops with listing of parishes etc (pp.2-122), the Dean of Lincoln (pp.123-4), the Duke of Devonshire (p.125), the Earl of Burlington (p.128), the Duke of Rutland (pp.129-30[?]); Royal Patronages in the English and Welsh Counties (pp.131-220); concluding with Preferments in the Patronage of the Earl of Exeter (p.221). The printed work mentioned above lists preferments by  county (alphabetical, main sub-division deanery or "decanatus" - another difference from the MS being the printed work's extensive use of Latin, the MS using English - variant spelling also). In both the information is columnised, with value to the right. The ordering of information in the  the MS makes it difficult to distinguish where there are differences of information, but these differences do exist. For example, the MS has nothing for Guernsey, fewer names at certain points, and additions in the totals (eg. 11.10.7 might be 11.10.8 in the MS - some figures are startling greater). The MS. also appears to be a work in progress or even practical use, with words sprinkled like "Value", "First Fruits", "Quaere" (this in the left column,  with mysterious additional sums, others in the text), "Discharged", "Not Charged", "nomination",  and information about "united" churches" who take an "alternate turn". The MS. also gives information about "Prebendal Stalls", including their being "annexed" to various positions like the Mastership or Fellow-ship of an Oxbridge College (eg. Trinity, Cambridge or Pembroke, Oxford).
