Sermons to the Novices Regular
Thirty conferences given by Thomas as master of novices at Mount St. Agnes, on the religious life: concord among brethren, obedience, humility, prayer, temptation and the rest. The Latin is Pohl's critical edition (Freiburg 1905), here from a raw OCR of the printed volume. The English is Vincent Scully's (London: Kegan Paul, 1907), with Thomas's prologue, which the Latin here lacks.

Source: The thirty sermons in three parts, with Pohl's upper-case sermon titles recased (u/v normalised by script). Line numbers, running heads and page breaks stripped by script; Pohl's critical footnotes and introduction are not imported. The exempla and the Vita Lidewigis in the same volume are not part of this book. Raw OCR: drop capitals, margin glosses and isolated letters are sometimes garbled. · Archive.org OCR read from the word-coordinate file and cleaned by script, not proofread: running heads, page numbers and the scanner's stamp dropped, and the translator's Scripture references in the margin dropped by their position. The drop capital that opens each sermon, lost in the OCR, is restored. Thomas's prologue and the note on the three parts are an English-only chapter; Scully's introduction and the table of sermons are not imported.
