Reconstruction Summary

These fragments were reused as binding material, and although they have been removed from the book, they remain in the physical condition in which they were found. That is, the fragments are joined together with glue and still attached to the headband (or tailband) and/or to other scraps of cardboard and paper.

It appears that there are at least three separate fragments from this manuscript as well as two or three fragments from a 15th-century breviary (F-x3dh). Because these fragments are covered by cardboard or by fragments of the breviary which were glued to it, identification of the original manuscript is not possible at this time.
