"Since the publication ... of the Descriptive catalogue of my illuminated manuscripts in 1898 and 1902, I have ... found it expedient not to increase the number of these precious books in my library beyond the one hundred therein described. My plan has been never to buy any additional volume unless it was decidedly superior in value and interest to one at least of my original hundred and upon its acquisition to discard the least fascinating of the said hundred."--Pref.
