This initial begins the Introit for the feast of St. Stephen (Dec. 26), 'Et enim sederunt principes et adversaum me loquebantur ...' (Closeted together, princes have plotted against me). A later scribe crossed out the first two words, 'et enim,' because they were dropped from the Introit at a later point in the history of the liturgy.
