thirteenth century for the Benedictine abbey of Peterborough.
These prayers will be rendered in the order of our Icelandic
manuscript, followed by the corresponding texts from Marturi, Ziirich,
Alpirsbach (also representing Bremen), and extracts from Morterner
and Peterborough. A few more manuscripts containing prayers to the
apostles will also be cited:

apostles. For their relationship to Alpirsbach, see Lemarié 1979, p. 9.

tal origin (Auteurs spirituels, p. 555).
