Description
Manuscript document. Title devised by cataloger. Recto: The first line is the verse said before the Oratio (the oratio starts at the decorated initial on the second line) for Ecclesiasticus 24 for the Hours of the Virgin, Ad Noma (None). However, it is only part of the Oratio. “Prosanctis antiphona” on the ninth line marks the antiphonal for the “Pro Sanctis” from the Hours of the Virgin I, Vespers. Verso: Starting at the decorated initial O on the fourth line is the second section of the Oratio for Pro Sanctis from the Hours of the Virgin I, Vespers. It is cut off after “omnibus”, with the catchword “fidelibus” in the lower margin. Collation: single sheet. Origin: France. Lettering: Written in a bastard secretary hand. Decoration: Contains 3 illuminated initials with burnished gold; inner fill of blue with a flower or other foliate design; framed by a red and white border. On verso, there is a red cross (used as linefill?) with blue dots in each quadrant. Text is in black and red ink. Binding: disbound.
