Remarks
Previously binding a register book from the Notary of Porto (1630-1631). Contents are paralleled in the Braga use. The circulation of the antiphon "Hodie completi sunt dies magnae" appears to be quite restricted to the Iberian Peninsula (e.g., Braga, Compostela, Toledo and Huesca). Out of this geographical realm, it only seems to appear in the antiphoner of Marseilles (F-Pn lat. 1090) and in the Breviary of Saintes (F-Pn lat. 16309). E-Tc 44.2 has a lacuna for the corresponding feast (Octave of Epiphany).
