Also on this leaf the 14th c. owner's name apparently appeared, but has been erased; there remains a note that the MS. cost him 19 florins...Also a further note for finding the date of Easter occurs on the last leaf...repeating the words 'mill'io C.C.C. quinquagesimo. This shows the book is earlier than 1350 (Thomas Thorp, bookseller, London).

The document describes a dark brown shield ... across the center a broad fess azure; above rays gules; below, metallic brown. These details may have been more visible in the past than they are now. However, brown is not a normal heraldic color, so this may be discoloration or a bole (clay) wash under gold which has rubbed off. Above the shield are initials M. A. with red penwork flourishes.
