Note
  • Layout: Most pages contain five long lines of text and five of music; f. 3r-v contains verse; ff. 115v-119 contain eight lines of music and eight of text. Ruled in pencil.
  • Decoration: Full-page watercolors of flowers and birds. 8 historiated initials. Red and blue initials. Larger puzzle-style red, gold and blue initials. Simple border designs around watercolors.
  • Script: Gothic; more modern hands ff. 3, 115v-119.
  • Music: Square notation on 4-line red staves; done in different hand.
  • It is possible that ff. 116-119 are a separate part: the leaves are darker and more worn and from 115v on are written in a different hand. Possibly they were added and the text begun on the verso of the last existing leaf, f. 115.
  • Manuscript dedicated to the Pope Gregory the Great.
