Two cuttings from a Noted Breviary, in Latin, manuscript on parchment [Germany, mid-twelfth century] Two long and tall cuttings from a large parent codex, collectively with parts of double column of 2 sizes of 32 lines in an early gothic bookhand (with parts of service for the dedication of a church and for the Common of Martyrs), capitals touched in red, red rubrics, simple red initials, early German neumes added above sung parts in slightly darker ink, scuffs, torn and cut edges, stains and small holes from reuse in a binding, overall fair condition, 283 by 86mm. and 273 by 90mm. The addition of the early musical notation here is interesting. It was added by the contemporary hand which corrected the main text, and employed early German neumes in campo aperto or staffless form.
