Gothic script (textualis)

A single paper folio from a Processional (or possibly a processional section of a Gradual). The recto preserves the continuation of a responsory verse for Trinity Sunday (Summae trinitati simplici) and the complete verse Praestet nobis gratiam deitas beata. The verso opens with a rubric for the hymn sung at Whitsunday processions (Veni creator spiritus), followed by its first strophe fully notated. Only the incipit of Qui paraclitus is set to music, with the remaining text left unnotated. The fragment is written on paper, with modest rubrication and simple penwork initials in alternating red and blue, confined to the verso. The recto is dominated by musical notation, while the verso emphasizes liturgical rubric and textual presentation.

Red rubrics introducing chants, notably on verso. Simple alternating blue and red penwork initials on verso only.
