Richard Hill's Commonplace Book, or Oxford, Balliol College MS 354,[1] is a manuscript collection of late-medieval English poems and other miscellaneous items compiled between 1503 and 1536 by the London merchant Richard Hill. It is an important source of 15th-century and early 16th-century lyrics, preserving such well-known works as "The Boar's Head Carol", "The Corpus Christi Carol" and "The Nut-Brown Maid". It also presents some interesting sidelights on commercial life in early Tudor England.[2]
