  abstract: Description: POEMS, biblical and romantic, in French, with the Imago Mundi and theological works in Latin, viz.:1. Bible History, in French verse, by Herman de Valenciennes. Beg. 'Cummencement de sens est la pour de deu'. Imperf, containing only the first 2850 lines, ending in Isaiah with the line 'Puis quil ert oinz a rai, puis nen uindra'. For a complete copy, dated 1280, see Harley MS. 222, where leaves 1 reads 'Cumenx de sapience est la tremor de dieu'. The author gives his name, among other places, on f. 9, color 1, last line, 'Clers sui de pouere sen, si sui mult geuenes hom, | Ne sui de Valencienes, Herman ma apeiet lum'.
