Oxford, Bodleian Library MS. Rawlinson D. 1152-1157. Paper in Quarto. 295+353+447+314+274 folios. 18th Century. Diary of Richard Roach, B.D. of St John's College, Oxford, from 21 Dec. 1706 to 8 June 1730; in six volumes, numbered in small labels on the back 41 to 46. The first volume of this series was not the first of the diary, as it is headed 'Diary continued'. Mystical meditations, dreams and visions, form a large portion of the contents. The greater part is written in contracted forms, and the names of persons and places are often only designated by initials, while much of the first two volumes is in short-hand. From Oct 1714 to Oct 1720 the diary is lost, except two leaves in July 1717.
