Abstract

All Medieval churches were required to own both a Gradual and an Antiphonal. The recto contains a small mark in the right margin, next to verse four of Psalm 67 to signal fit reverentia, or 'all bow.' The Roman pagination in the upper right corner of both leaves (CXXXVIII and XCIX) indicates them as coming from pages 138 and 99 of the full Gradual.

Decoration

Alternating blue and red flourished initials.
