Summary

Peeking through the paper covering it, this fragment consists of a bifolium, of which the trimmed right (recto) side is visible, revealing on two columns lines from the Legenda prima of St. Anthony. From the beginning of the text on the left column to the beginning of the text on the right, the total passage in the edited Legenda is roughly 35 times the length of the five lines visible on the left; therefore, the leaf contained either a huge omission, or consists of just extracts of Anthony's vita, such as what one might find in a legendary. Note also the rubric visible on the left (verso) side of the bifolium.
