    Manuscript note: The library at Steinfeld was indeed chained and the triangular-shaped metal hasp rivetted at the upper edge of the lower cover is similar to those on other medieval bindings from the library. However, the chain itself was clearly not present when the manuscript was catalogued in 1910, and it is doubtless a twentieth-century romantic reconstruction attached to an authentic hasp.
