Summary:
Leaf from a breviary containing readings and chants for the liturgical season following Easter. The readings include Acts 14.14-21 and 16.16-24, Romans 9.9 and 9.11, John 16.16, and the beginning of a lesson from a homily of Bede and responsory chants are interspersed with the readings. Written in Germany, the chant is written in Hufnagelschrift neumes on 4-line staves with some lines ruled in red. The text is written in a Protogothic script. Rubrics and 2-line initials in red, faded. The leaf is somewhat trimmed and marked with folds from use in a binding.
