Notes

*Bond 1878, p. 7, MS 2 contemporary; Wallenberg, KPN, pp. 281-5, on place-ames; Drögereit 1952, p. 56, n. 87, forged; Chaplais 1966/1, pp. 164-5, may be genuine, unlikely to be Dunsan's autograph (cf. his subscription) but perhaps written at Glastonbury (= 1973, pp. 47-8); Barker 1967, p. 87; Chaplais 1968, p. 316 and n. 9, some punctuation marks in MS 1 may have been inserted subsequently, perhaps by Dunstan himself (= 1973, pp. 64-5); Finberg 1972, pp. 415, 492, on unit of assessment; HRH, p. 229, has been supposed a forgery, subscriptions are consistent; Witney 1976, p. 272, identifies Ceolulfingtun with Chilmington in Great Chart; Whitelock, EHD, p. 378, has several unusual features; Keynes 1980, p. 27 n. 40, probably not authentic; Brooks 1984, pp. 232-6, authenticity uncertain, perhaps early forgery, p. 378 n. 153, on script; Chaplais 1985, p. 44, on production; Lapidge 1988, pp. 91-2; Brooks 1992, pp. 17-18, contemporary Glastonbury formulation, MS 1 may be an authentic original of Dunstan himself; Gough 1992, on bounds; Lapidge 1993, pp. 134, 152 n., pp. 185-6, dates MS 1 to last third of 10th century, MS 2 to 11th century, and discusses Dunstan connection; Dumville 1994, p. 146 n. 71, agrees with Lapidge; Keynes 1994, pp. 184-5
