Bald's Leechbook
Bald's Leechbook (also known as Medicinale Anglicum) is an Old English medical text probably compiled in the ninth-century, possibly under the influence of Alfred the Great's educational reforms. It takes its name from a Latin verse colophon at the end of the second book which begins Bald habet hunc librum Cild quem conscribere iussit, meaning "Bald owns this book which he ordered Cild to compile." The text survives in only one manuscript, held in London at the British Library. The manuscript contains one further medical text, called Leechbook III, which is also included in this entry.
