- Summary:
- Leaf from a missal containing readings and chant from the Mass for the Ember Saturday in Advent, including the end of the epistle (Thessalonians 2, 2.5-8) and the beginning of the tractus chant with two versus (Qui regis Israel, intende; Qui sedes super Cherubim; Excita, Domine, potentiam tuam) on the recto, and the end of the tractus and the beginning of the Gospel (Luke 3.1-5) on the verso. Possibly written in France, the chant is written in diastematic neumes on 3-line staves, with the bottom line ruled in red and a small c in the left margin between the first and second lines. The text is written in a Protogothic script, and the leaf is ruled in lead, with vertical bounding lines. 2-line red initial with blue flourishing; rubrics in red, some initials slashed with red.
- Penn Provenance:
- An unclear inscription, lower recto, is dated 1604.
