- Leaf with an excised initial
This leaf has fallen victim to an earlier collector who prized only the historiated initial and cut it out of the leaf. The missing initial marked the beginning of the deutero-canonical Book of Judith and most likely contained the scene of Judith cutting off the head of Holofernes.
