Tickhill Psalter
The Tickhill Psalter is a 14th-century illuminated manuscript. It is beautifully illuminated with scenes from the life of King David. Created in the early 14th century, the manuscript was originally part of the library of the Worksop Priory in north Nottinghamshire. It is now kept in the New York Public Library. The name most likely derives from the fact that it was produced by prior John de Tickhill, who as his name would suggest came from the nearby South Yorkshire town of Tickhill.

gollark: Interesting!
gollark: In languages such as Haskell, generics are extremely natural. `data Beeoid a b = Beeoid a | Metabeeoid (Beeoid b a) a | Hyperbeeoid a b a b` trivially defines a simple generic data type. It is only in the uncoolest of languages that this simplicity has been stripped away, with generic support artificially limited to a small subset of types, generally just arrays and similar structures. Thus, reject no generics, return to generalized, simple and good generics.
gollark: Great. Doing so. Thanks, syl.
gollark: Or at least... more consistent, which is kind of similar.
gollark: Perhaps it could be argued that generics are the natural state of things somehow, and simpler than no generics.
