Summary

Incipit "Suscepit Israel puerum..."/Explicit "veritatemin s(a)e-"

Sequence of Psalms in Vespers appears to indicate Use of Paris

Staining on gutter side of the leaf, most likely done by the tape of the Fragmentor, Otto F. Ege, who dismembered the manuscript in the early 20th century. Leaves used as #31 in Fifty Original Leaves Sets
