Abstract
The starting point for this investigation is an early fifteenth-century English book of hours, known as the "Bolton Hours," lavishly illustrated with some 47 full-page images, and now in the possession of York Minster Library (Add. MS 2). In addition to the principal written texts—notably the Hours of the Virgin and the Hours of the Cross—which were common to this genre of devotional manuscript and gave rise to its popular name, the Bolton Hours contains some unusual texts and images which have no known parallels in late medieval England. The aim of this article is to connect these unique words and pictures with contemporary political events, and in particular to the cult of "St" Richard Scrope, the Archbishop of York (1398-1405) who was convicted of treason against King Henry IV and beheaded outside the walls of his city On 8 June 1405.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
