“Diemudis was formerly a most devout nun of this our monastery of Wessobrunn. [Pez states that Diemudis lived in the time of Gregory VII., who became Pope in 1073. She was, therefore, though probably somewhat younger, a contemporary of the monk Othlonus of Ratisbon.] For our monastery was formerly double or divided into two parts; that is to say, of monks and nuns. The place of the monks was where it now is; but that of the nuns, where the parish church now stands. This virgin was most skilful in the art of writing: for though she is not known to have composed any work, yet she wrote with her own hand many volumes in a most beautiful and legible character, both for divine service and for the public library of the monastery. Of these books she has left a list in a certain _plenarius_.[121] The titles are as follows: A _Missal, with the Gradual and Sequences._ Another _Missal, with the Gradual and Sequences_, given to the Bishop of Trèves. Another _Missal, with the Epistles, Gospels, Graduals, and Sequences_. Another _Missal, with the Epistles and Gospels for the year, the Gradual and Sequences, and the entire service for baptism_. A _Missal, with Epistles and Gospels_. A _Book of Offices_. Another _Book of Offices, with the baptismal service_ (given to the Bishop of Augsburg). A _Book, with the Gospels and Lessons_. A _Book, with the Gospels_. A _Book, with the Epistles_. A _Bible_, in two volumes, given for the estate in Pisinberch. A _Bible_, in three volumes. S. Gregory _ad regaredum_. _S. Gregory on Ezekiel. Sermons and Homilies of certain ancient Doctors_, three volumes. _Origen on the Old Testament. Origen on the Canticles.

Jerome’s Epistles_, to the number of clxiv. _The Tripartite History of Cassiodorus. The Ecclesiastical History of Eusebius._ S. Augustine, _Fifty Sermons. The Life of S. Silvester.
