Note:

Manuscript note: The present leaf is from a manuscript made in Rome in the early 1480s, probably while Sanvito was still working for Cardinal Gonzaga, who might have been its first owner. It was evidently one of the manuscripts broken up by Otto Ege, who gave two leaves to the calligrapher James Hayes in 1948-49. Ege’s source for it is not yet known, except that he assumed it was French...

One leaf: Latin.
One leaf: The text of the Lilly leaf is psalm 6: 5-11.
