Summary

Two small parchment fragments from a late medieval liturgical manuscript, preserving portions of a Marian antiphon. Written in Gothic script with rubrication and simple red or penwork initials, the chant is notated in black square neumes on four-line red staves. Much of the text and music is lost, and the verso is faded. The fragments likely derive from a gradual or antiphoner produced between the 14th and 15th centuries.
