It collapsed during some altera- tions made by President Ralph Kettell, who built the present hall on the same site in 1618-20. ° Stage or scaffold, from Karaa-Taais; an instrument of torture (Ducange); perhaps here the stocks, which were kept ‘ above the skreen at Trin. Coll. Camb. in 1560 ; see Willis and Clark, iii. 364. ’’ The present buttery of Trinity College; the central doorway is a four-centred arch, but a pointed arch is visible in the S.W. corner, which is probably the most ancient piece of building to be seen in the College. ® Sc. diebus or feriis, feast-days. ® Sanops, sanoppis {1455), saunappes, savenapes, corrupted from late Greek aa^avov, a save-napkin or coarse towel for ordinary occasions (Finchale Rolls, glossary). ...
