 Original material often appears in the forms of asides to the audience and expanded dialogue.Manfred Görlach has argued that the probable main sources of the Legendary are a legenda close to the Sarum Use (while there are notable similarities, there is no surviving legenda matching closely enough to have been the actual text used); a copy of a Summa, such as Belet's, used as a source for the facts in the entries for the movable feasts; general knowledge of the Bible; and some texts of native saints.The Legenda Aurea was also used as a source for the Legendary, but Görlach dates the earliest version of the Legendary earlier than the arrival of the Legenda Aurea in England and argues that, while it was then used as a source for the Legendary, it had less influence than was previously assumed.
