Manuscript codex. Kalendar ff. 1-12b. The calendar does not include entries for every day of the year, and is approximately half full. Entries in red include St. Agnes, Landoald, Pancras, Boniface, Odulf, Martin, Laurence, Lambert, Remigius and Bavo, Gereon, Willibrord, Lebuin, Nicholas, Thomas, and Steven. St. Donatian was added in a later hand, suggesting the book was not originally made for Bruges usage.
