[15th c.]

The text is a preserved fragment of a 15th-century liturgical manuscript containing chants and readings concerning the biblical history of Jacob and the Lenten period (the expulsion of the merchants from the temple). The leaf was reused as a bookbinding and supplemented in the 17th century with chancery notes.
