Bad. This fragment is still being used as book cover. There is water damage, some parts of the margins are missing, with loss of contents.
One column with 8 lines of texted music.
The musical items in this fragment follow the same order found in the Cistercian antiphoner P-AR Res. Ms. 21 for the fourth Sunday of Advent (ff. 21v-22r). There is also melodic concordance but the antiphons Canite tuba in Sion, Eccce veniet desideratus and Erunt prava are transposed, just as it happens in the Cistercian antiphoner at the same archive (P-EVad Mús. Lit. Ms. nº 63, dated from the 16th century).
