Initial I This initial begins the first response of the first nocturn of Matins for the Thursday in Holy Week, 'In monte oliveti oravit ad patrem ...' (On the Mount of Olives, he prayed to his father). This image shows the reverse of a leaf with a decorated initial from an antiphonary. This side of the leaf, the true recto, contains the antiphon preceding the first response of the first nocturn of Matins for the Thursday in Holy Week, which begins on the front. Script: Rotunda
