distinguishes between them, but even in the list of works which he assigns to the archdeacon of Canterbury, there are several which undoubtedly belong to the bishop; it cannot be regarded as certain that any of them belong to the archdeacon. Boston of Bury mentions that he had seen several of Haymo's works in libraries, but in some cases where his references can be traced the works alluded to are evidently copies of works by Haymo of Halberstadt. Haymo's supposed writings consist of commentaries on portions of the Bible and some other theological treatises; a list of them will be found in Tanner's ‘Bibliotheca Britannico-Hibernica.’ A list of the commentaries by one of the Haymos which were formerly in the library at Christ Church, Canterbury, will be found in Edwards's ‘Memoirs of Libraries,’ i. 140.

HAYMO of Faversham (d. 1244), Franciscan and fourth general of the order, was born at Faversham, Kent. After studying in England he went to Paris, where, according to Leland, he was reputed the most Aristotelian of Aristotelians. He was already a priest and famous preacher when he was received into the Franciscan order at St. Denys by Gregory of Naples on the Thursday before Good Friday, in what year is unknown. Haymo preached a sermon on the occasion, taking for his text Psalm cxxv. 1 (Vulgate). Shortly afterwards he appears to have returned home, being one of the first Franciscans to come to England; his virtues and eloquence gave him great influence in promoting the extension of his order. Later on he went back to Paris, and was sent as a lecturer to Tours, Bologna, and Padua. In 1233 he was chosen by Gregory IX to go as one of his envoys to endeavour to bring about a union with the Greek church. Haymo and his companions first held a discussion at Nicæa and thence went to Constantinople, and finally attended a synod at Nymphæa in Bithynia; the mission, however, proved abortive (see full account of its proceedings in Labbe, Concilia, xxii. 277–320; and Wadding, Ann. Ord. Min. ii. 319–49). Haymo played a great part in some of the early troubles of the order. By his influence Gregory of Naples, ‘minister Franciæ,’ was removed from his office, and those whom he had imprisoned were released. In 1238 he was instrumental in obtaining the deposition of Elias, the second general of the order, and made a journey to Rome for this purpose. In the chapter held on this occasion Haymo was appointed ‘minister Angliæ,’ but held the office only one year, during which time he received into the order Ralph de Maidstone, bishop of Hereford, and allowed the friars to enlarge their buildings. In 1240 he was made fourth general of the order. His rule was marked by the first and last general chapter of the ‘diffiniti.’ Haymo died at Anagnia in Italy in 1244; his tomb bore the inscription:
Hic jacet Anglorum summum decus Haymo minorum,
Vivendo frater, hosque regendo pater,
Eximius lector, generalis in ordine rector.
He must have been an old man, for in 1238 he is spoken of as ‘iste senex vir bonus et breviloquus.’ His virtues earned him the title of ‘Speculum honestatis.’ He was employed by Gregory IX (Trithemius wrongly says by Alexander IV) to correct and edit the ‘Breviarium Romanum,’ and is said to have added the rubrics. Haymo also wrote: 1. ‘De Missæ Caerimoniis,’ printed in the ‘Monumenta Ordinis Minorum’ (ii. 287), Salamanca, 1511, and in the ‘Liber familiaris Clericorum,’ Venice, 1561. 2. ‘Super magistrum sententiarum’ (Leland says that he had seen this work). 3. ‘Sermones per annum.’

HAYNE, THOMAS (1582–1645), schoolmaster, son of Robert Hayne of Thrussington, Leicestershire, born in 1582, matriculated from Lincoln College, Oxford, on 12 Oct. 1599. Lameness incapacitated him for recreation, and he devoted himself exclusively to study. He was admitted B.A. on 23 Jan. 1604-5, was appointed second under-master of Merchant Taylors' School, London, in the same year, became usher at Christ's Hospital in 1608, and commenced M.A. in 1612. He died on 27 July 1645, and was buried in Christ Church, London, where a monument, destroyed in the fire of London, was erected to his memory. By will dated 20 Sept. 1640 he bequeathed his books to the library at Leicester, with the exception of a few which he left to the library at Westminster. He also gave 400l. to be bestowed in buying lands or houses of the annual value of 24l. for the maintenance of a schoolmaster at
