Virtual reconstruction of three bifolia from the same manuscript that were used to bind three volumes of Michael Praetorius' work of polyphonic music Polyhymnia Caduceatrix Panegyrica (Wolfenbüttel, 1619). The fragments are still in situ on the host volumes, which belonged to Herlufsholm Skole, a private Latin school located in Næstved, Sealand. It was founded in 1565 on the grounds of a secularised Benedictine monastery, St Peders Kloster. It is unclear when they entered the library or where they were bound. They contain no provenance inscriptions. A leaf from another liturgical manuscript (F-lxyd) is currently being used as a loose wrapper to protect the three songbooks belonging to Herlufsholm Skole. The old library of Herlufsholm was transferred to the University Library of Southern Denmark in 1968-69.
