Notes

• Initial S with the Virgin Mary and Christ Child
   
• This initial begins the third response of the second nocturn of Matins for Christmas Day, 'Sancta et immaculato virginitas ...' (Holy and immaculate virginity). This leaf and several others in the Free Library's collection were illuminated by Neri da Rimini, a Riminese illuminator whose activity can be documented from 1300 to 1338.
   
• This image shows the reverse of a leaf with an historiated initial from an antiphonary. This side of the leaf, the true verso, continues the third response of the second nocturn of Matins for Christmas Day, which begins on the front.
   
• This cutting can be dated to ca. 1300-1313.
