Notes
- Initial I with the Raising of Lazarus
- This initial, perhaps from an antiphonary, has been severely trimmed. It appears to be an 'I' beginning the first response of the first nocturn of Matins for the Friday after the Fourth Sunday of Lent, 'In mari viae tuae, et semitae tuae in aquis multis...' (Your ways in the sea, and your paths in many waters). This response is sometimes illustrated by the Raising of Lazarus in other antiphonaries.
- Inscribed magical incantation
- The inscription on the reverse of this cutting, written in Italian and added at a later date, appears to be a magical chant associated with Psalm 10 printed on a piece of paper attached to the cutting.
