      One would expect here In Conceptione Beatae Mariae Virginis. The few readable passages (e.g. Off. Michi...) seem to rule that out.

History

Origin

Italy
Provenance

The manuscript may have been maculated by the Jesuits of Cluj. On the hair side of Fragm. Cod. Lat. 10, which comes from the same MS, an early-modern hand (s. XVII-XVIII) wrote "Jesus Maria".

Host Volume

Remarks

Fragm. Cod. Lat. 8-10 were detached from an unspecified volume at some point in the 19th or 20th century, and were kept in a box until the restoration programme began in 2020.
