Order to bishop of Worcester to publish face IX. Though fairly confident in my own mind, I should hesitate to maintain my opinion against that of more competent palaeographers, but fortunately internal evidence can also be invoked. Reference is made in the bull to ' Bernardini de Marsi . . .' and ' eiusdem Actauiani [sic] '. It is difficult not to believe that this is the ' Octavian son of Bernardinus, canon of Wells ', mentioned in Cal. of Pat. Rolls, Edw. I, 1281-92, p. 342, for the year 1290. Mr. Gilson concurs in the new dating, and the attribution to Boniface VIII is made in the corrigenda to the catalogue.
