Bottom halves of two bifolia used as binding supports (front and back) in an incunabulum (Petrus Lombardus, Glossa magistralis Psalterii, Nuremburg, Johann Sensenschmidt and Andreas Frisner, 1475/76). Catchwords visible on front bifolium indicate that it was once the outer leaves of a gathering. Text across both bifolia is readings and prayers from the Summer Histories (De Regum 3–4); the staffless neumes are visible for chants Montes Gelboe nec ros nec and Planxit autem David planctu magno.
