Material
Condition of document

Fragment 50: badly damaged, about 30% of the folio lost to severe tearing.
Fragments 84 and 85: overall good condition with almost all contents preserved. Some dirtiness on the central line, corresponding to the exposed spine of the volume, and library stamps accounting for minor loss of contents.

Page layout

Six lines of text and music

Foliation/Pagination

Three non-consecutive folios dismembered from the same manuscript.
The original order of the three fragments was 85 > 50 > 84

Remarks

Although the square notation on pentagram is typically Iberian, the contents match in toto those of the Notre Dame de Paris breviary, BNL Lat. 15182 ff. 385r - sgg.
