The fragment contains the Office for St. Gerald of Aurillac, commemorated on the 13th October, and which is also found in few other sources: F-Pn lat. 2826, lat. 944, lat. 776 and E-Tc 44.2. This Portuguese fragment includes the end of the Resp. Cumque iam tempus, four supernumerary antiphons, six antiphons for Lauds, and the Magnificat antiphon, O homo dei beate Geralde.
Type of script
Description of the notation

Its Aquitanian notation uses a dry-point line and slanted puncta for sub-semitonal degrees, being thus a forerunner of the typical Portuguese notational variety of the 13th-15th centuries.
