Content: Lectionary (Epistolarium). Principally with Epistle readings, with Leviticus being treated as an Epistle. Large Formal Gothic Minuscule. Initials and titles rubricated. All passages begin with Fratres, the F in large red 2-line majuscules. The titles (all in red) are 1r: Feria vi. Ad Thessalonicenses; Ad Ephesios. 1v: Feria vi. Ad Corinthios; Lectio libri Levitici. 2r: Ad Corinthios ... Ad Thesslonicenses. 2v: Feria vi. Ad Corinthios; Feria vi. Ad Galathas. The passages often show that they were to be used on a Friday, without specifying which Friday (possibly the Friday after Pentecost, because the piece from Leviticus was usually said in the week after Pentecost).
