Notes
- Suffrages in books of hours were prayers dedicated to various saints and holy figures. The figures of God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Dove of the Holy Spirit represent the Christian doctrine of the Holy Trinity.
- The Holy Trinity, beginning the Suffrage to the Holy Trinity
- The numbers '81' and '86' are written in upper right corner of recto, indicating that this bifolium was once ff. 81 and 86 of the original manuscript.
- Text page with additional prayers for the Hours of the Virgin
- This opening was the 81st and 86th folio of the original manuscript. The text on this opening is not continuous and lacks four leaves that would have fit between the two pages.
