"Deum et ho[m]i[n]em genuisti et.../...Sanctum quo[que] paridi[si]".

This is a fragment of a fifteenth-century Book of Hours known as the St. Alexis Hours. This fragment is decorated with a full border of acanthus and rinceaux in gold, red, blue, and green featuring some flowers, strawberries, and a tree on both recto and verso bearing golden fruit. There is a roundel minature on the outer right margin of the recto and on the outer left margin of the verso. 

Recto: Three men on horseback, one wearing red, one wearing white, and the other wearing blue.

Verso: A man is sitting on a throne with a sword in hand shaking the hand of the man before him. There is also another man in the background. Something is being held by the man in red.

The manuscript was likely broken in the 1980s. This leaf was offered by Charles Edwin Puckett Rare Books, stock number IM-1518, current location unknown.
