    Collation: Parchment, fol. i (paper) + 112 + i (paper) ; 16+1 (fol. 7 singleton) 28 36+1 (fol. 18 singleton) 4-88 910 10-148 ; signed on the final verso of each quire: i, ii, [quire 3 unsigned], A-L (skips [J]). Fol. 1-22 are codicologically distinct from fol. 23-112, using a different page layout and signature scheme. This suggests that the two parts were originally conceived as distinct...

    Layout: Fol. 1-22v: one column, writing space 251 x 164 mm, 35 lines; fol. 23-112: two columns, 41 lines. Bounding and writing lines ruled in blind.

Patricia Stirnemann has demonstrated that the manuscript was written in the abbey of Anchin and decorated at Saint-Amand, both in the far North of France. The script is...
