Layout: 1 column, 27 lines Script: Written in angular Gothic script in brown ink Decoration: On recto, 5-line blue initial [G] on green ground with brown penwork extending above and below in left marginal space. Penwork is decorated with a sun and cloud. On verso, 3-line red initial [U] on green ground with similar brown penwork flourishing. Incorrectly previously identified as a book of hours leaf, still in a bound portfolio identifying it as a book of hour leaf. The inclusion of red ink instructions for the priest and titles such as "collecte" and "vers" show that this is instead a missal leaf. Recto contains prayers to Saint Augustine and Gregory the Great Bound into a black leather portfolio with the label "Dutch book of hours"
