Notes
- Initial P
- This initial begins the first response of the first nocturn of Matins for the first Sunday after Pentecost, 'Preparate corde vestra domino et servite illi soli.' (Prepare your hearts for the Lord and serve him only). Lewis E M 65:1-78 were once thought to have come from a single manuscript associated with the Cistercian monastery at Zwettl in Austria. It has been determined, however, that the leaves are from a number of separate manuscripts and were likely produced by a team of scribes and artists at the scriptorium of the Benedictine monastery at Melk.
- These leaves can be dated to ca. 1430-1440.
- This image shows the reverse of a leaf with an initial from an antiphonary. This side of the leaf, the true recto, contains chants for First Vespers.
