Not illustrated. 1883 edition. Excerpt: ...of The Wooden Cross speaking known to me. It is a bold feature of poetical and religious art, and has apparently not been often used later. I only remember it once again in English. This is the Dispute between Mary and the Cross in the Vernon Ms., date about 1370. It is printed in Dr. R. Morris's valuable Legends of the Holy them when.he woke, are given by him in lines 55--166, thus in 102 lines, which we may call the Cross-words part 1. They are a panorama of the Passion. Rood (8vo.
