No books were allowed to the lay brothers and nothing could be written in the monastery without the See also:prior's consent. Mannyng entered this See also:house in 1288, when, according to the rules, he must have been at least 24 years of See also:age, if, as is supposed, he was a lay See also:brother. He says he was at See also:Cambridge with Robert de See also:Bruce and his two brothers, See also:- THOMAS

See also:Thirty-five years later he began his See also:Story of Inglande, and had removed (1I. 139, &c.) to the monastery of Sixille (now Sixhills), near See also:Market Rasen, in See also:north Lincolnshire.

William of See also:Waddington's See also:Manuel See also:des Pechiez. It is a See also:series of metrical homilies on the Ten Commandments, the Seven Deadly Sins and the Seven Sacraments, illustrated by a number of amusing stories from various See also:sources. The See also:Cursor Mundi had turned religious See also:history into something not very different from a See also:romance of See also:chivalry, and in the stories of Handlyng Synne the See also:influence of the fabliaux is not far to seek. Mannyng wrote in the English See also:tongue not for learned but for " lewd " men, " that talys and ryme wyl blethly here," to occupy the leisure See also:hours during which they might otherwise fall into " vylanye, dedly synne or other folye." Each of his twenty-four topics has its See also:complement of stories. He tells of the English observance of Saturday afternoon as See also:holy to the Virgin, and has much to say of ,popular amusements, which become sins when they keep See also:people away from See also:- CHURCH

monk's keen observation makes the See also:book a far more valuable contribution to history than his professed See also:chronicle. It is a storehouse of See also:quaint stories and out-of-the-way See also:information on See also:manners and customs.
His chronicle, The Story of Inglande, was also written for the solace and amusement of the unlearned when they sit together in fellowship (II. 6–Io).

king of See also:Britain, is traced back to See also:Noah, through See also:Aeneas, and the chronicler relates the incidents of the Trojan See also:war as told by Dares the Phrygian. From this point he follows closely the See also:Brut of See also:Wace. He loved stories for their own See also:sake, and found See also:fault with Wace for questioning the miraculous elements in the legend of See also:Arthur. In the second half of his chronicle, which is less See also:simple in See also:style, he translates from the See also:French of See also:Pierre de See also:Langtoft. He writes in rhyming alexandrines, and in the latter See also:part of the See also:work uses See also:middle rhymes. Mannyng's Chronicle marks a See also:change in See also:national sentiment. Though he regards the See also:Norman domination as a " bondage," he is loud in his praises of See also:Edward I., "Edward of Inglond."
The linguistic importance of Mannyng's work is very See also:great. He used very few of those See also:Teutonic words which, though still in use, were eventually to drop out of the See also:language, and he introduced
a great number of French words destined to be permanently adopted in English. Moreover, he employed comparatively few obsolete inflexions, and his work no doubt furthered the See also:adoption of the Midland See also:dialect as the acknowledged See also:literary See also:instrument. T. L.
Kington-See also:Oliphant (Old and Middle English, 1878) regards his work as the definite starting point of the New English which with slight changes was to See also:form the language of the Book of See also:Common See also:Prayer.
A third work, usually ascribed to Mannyng, chiefly on the ground of its existing See also:side by side with the Handlyng Synne in the Harleian and Bodleian See also:MSS., is the Medylacyuns of the Soper of oure lorde Jhesu, And also of hys passyun And eke of the
Robert of Brunne's Chronicle exists in two MSS.: Petyt MS. 511, written in the See also:Northern dialect, in the Inner See also:Temple library; and See also:Lambeth MS. 131 in a Midland dialect. The first part was edited The Story of See also:England . (1887) for the Rolls Series, with an See also:introductory See also:essay by F. J. See also:Furnivall; the second part was published
by Thomas See also:Hearne as See also:- PETER
