The incipits and explicits of all fifty-five sermons in the cycle, numbered [1] to [55] are given in the Index at the end of this volume. They are described briefly here under one heading because of Hudson and Gradon's authoritative edition of the whole cycle.

For manuscripts of Set 5 or part thereof, see Hudson EWS I, p. 1 and pp. 52–97; for another manuscript containing set I and set 5 only see IMEP XIX, indexing CUL Ii.i.40 (Hudson EWS I, MS B). On the coherence and importance of the complete cycle see Hudson, ‘Implications’, 142–56.
