Initial S with St. Peter This initial begins the first response of the first nocturn of Matins for the feast of Sts. Peter and Paul (June 29), 'Simon petre antequem de navi vocarem te novi te ' (Simon Peter, before I called you from the ship, I knew you ). Lewis E M 65:1-78 were once thought to have come from a single manuscript associated with the Cistercian monastery at Zwettl in Austria. It has been determined... These leaves can be dated to ca. 1430-1440. This image shows the reverse of a leaf with an historiated initial from an antiphonary Script: Gothic bookhand
