CCCC MS 142, dating to the fifteenth century, is a copy of translation by Nicholas Love OCarth (d. 1423/4) of the pseudo-Bonaventuran Meditationes uitae Christi, an expansion of the Gospel narrative of the life of Christ. This text in both its Latin versions and translations into the vernacular was very popular throughout Europe in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Nicholas Love, a Carthusian, was prior of Mount Grace in Yorkshire. His translation of the Meditationes, The Mirrour of the blessyd Lyf of Christ, was submitted for approval to Archbishop Arundel in 1410, and the Memorandum of the licence of approval is in this manuscript.
