Description of the notation

Square French notation on four red lines. Liquescences, no custos, letter-clefs (c and b).

Decoration

Red and blue initials with filigree. Although the decoration is in the style of the Parisian decoration of the years 1235-45, it has English influences that can be seen in the "scrolled projections" (“projections enroulées”) according to Patricia Stirnemann (personnal communications of the 27-28 June 2022). Instead of elongated antennae, these light feather strokes were curled over themselves.
