Notes
- Initial I with an enshrined figure
- The iconography of this initial is unclear, but text on the reverse suggests that this initial probably begins the first response for the first nocturn of Matins for Septuagesima Sunday, 'In principio fecit Deus caelum et terram ...' (In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth).
- This image shows the reverse of a cutting with an historiated initial from an antiphonary.
- Initial I
- The precise moment in the liturgy that this initial begins remains to be determined. Similarities in the style of illumination and script, however, indicate that Lewis E M 16:28 and 29 are from the same manuscript.
- This image shows the reverse of a cutting with a decorated initial from an antiphonary.
