Material
Condition of document

The folio is well preserved, although some of the contents are missing due to the trimming of the upper edge. There are vertical folds at both ends of the bifolium. This fold shows that the folio has been folded for many years. In general, the content is easily legible, but in some areas it is illegible due to dirt and broken Br-Bv foil.

Page layout

Two columns with 27 lines, although there must have been more, as the top edge of the folio has been trimmed. The straight lines for the notation are crooked, and the notation has not been applied to many chants.

Foliation/Pagination

The original foliation is missing, probably due to the trimming of the top border of the folio.

Remarks

These folios belonged to the section dedicated to the Common of the Saints
