Notes
  • Manuscript leaf. Discoloration of the recto, folding marks, sewing holes, and thread residue suggest strongly that the lead was later used as a cover or wrapper of a bound book or documents.
  • Double column, 38 lines in early Gothic bookhand script.
  • Contains music in neumatic notation.
  • Origin: Probably written in eastern France (Lorraine) or the Rhineland in the first half of the 12th century.
  • Contains several three-line initials in red with blue penwork flourishes.
  • "lxxi" written in lower margin of verso.
Language note
Text in Latin.
