Note:

Manuscript note: Contains portions of the Wycliffite Bible, much used and very worn, many edges defective from damp, pages at end almost illegible where the acidic ink has eaten through the parchment (mostly now patched).
Bibliography: De Ricci 1935, p. 623.
ff. 1r- 246: Latin.
f. 1r-4r: Includes a table of roman and arabic numerals, fol. 2v, tables, recording leap years, Sunday letters and what are primesiand marchesifor all the years 1425-1472; fol 4r, on the phases of the moon.
Explicit, f. 1r-4r: these blak lynes downward.

f. 14r: The Psalter is taken from the Wycliffite Bible text as revised in the 1380s by or in the circle of Wycliffe’s personal assistant, John Purvey (c. 1353–c. 1428; cf. Hargreaves 1956), corresponding with that in the Wycliffite Bible edited by Forshall and Madden 1881 .Psalms begin on fol. 14v, ending on fol. 205v, followed by the canticles, ending on fol. 225v.
Incipit, f. 14r: Here endith ye psalmes that stonden aftir ye sauter, whiche ben clepid ye canticlis AMEN.

ff. 225v-243r: The translation of the Hours of the Virgin used here is no. 225 in Raymo 1986, pp. 2569–70, and it corresponds to the edition published by William Maskell 1882.Hours of the Virgin (Maskell 1882, p. 1), Matins, followed by Lauds (fol. 229r), Prime (fol. 233v), Terce (fol. 235r), Sext (fol. 236v), None (fol. 237v), Vespers (fol. 239v) and Compline (fol. 241v).
