Summary

"Sicut letantiu[m] [sic. laetantium] omn[ium]... / ... Q[uonia]m om[ne]s dii gentium daemonia: D(omi)n[us] autem caelos fecit." (Hours of the Virgin Matins, End of psalm 86 and Pslam 95). Rubrication on this leaf notes that the next three prayers (after Psalm 86) are meant to be said on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Manuscript likely dismembered by Otto and Louise Ege in the 1940s. Leaves became no. 36 in the "Fifty Original Leaves of Medieval Manuscripts" portfolios. This leaf is part of Set no. 6, which was acquired by UMass Amherst Library Special Collections and University Archives. [Hannah Bini]
