History

Remarks

This leaf is somehow associated with Leeds, University of Leeds Libraries, Special Collections, MS Ripon Cathedral Fragments/27 (Part 1). These two leaves are very different in every aspect and are definitely products of different hands from different centuries. It is very unlikely that they came from the same codex or from the same host volume.
