William George Henderson (Surtees Society, vols 59-60, 1874), vol 1 pp. 1-259, vol 2 pp. 1-227. The five here but not in the text of the York missal as printed by W.G.

All the others, except 'Vox clarescat' (U. Chevalier, 'Repertorium Hymnologicum', no. 22203), are printed by W. G. Henderson in his appendix IV, derived from MS.
