Trimmed gradual leaf for the 17th Saturday and 18th Sunday after Pentecost. 5 four-line staves in red ink on each side with historiated initial D on verso (at the Introit Da pacem) showing a green-hued Christ with stigmata and holding a book. Initial frame extends into the margin and includes two small grotesques.
