The Fayrfax Manuscript (British Museum Add MS 5465) contains works of William Cornishe jr., Davy, Banastir, Newark, Sheringham, Tutor, Turges, Browne, Sir Thomas Philipps, and a number of anonymous composers as well as seven pieces by Robert Fayrfax, whose arms appear on the title page. It seems to have been compiled before Fayrfax received the title of Doctor in 1504, and a prayer for Prince Arthur (d. 1502) likewise dates it to around the turn of the century.
