Summary

One parchment leaf - previously a flyleaf of the manuscript with treatises by Dominican authors, kept in the former (to 1944) State and University Library in Königsberg (Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Königsberg, Ms 1194).

Contains a fragment of the sermon in honor of the Virgin Mary in Hungarian, praising her virginity (f. 1r: Königsberg fragment), and sketches of three sermons in Latin to the "verba thematis": Hbr 1,14; Ps 17, 29; Mt 19, 27 (f. 1rv).

Königsbergi Töredèk written between 1180 and 1205 (c. 1193) is considered the second oldest known text in Hungarian.
