A Calendar (fol. 2), Penitential Psalms with Litany (fol. 14), 'Vigilie Mortuorum' (fol. 39), 'Officium de Sancta Cruce' (fol. 98), 'Officium de Sancto Spiritu' (fol. 106), etc.

Of the Hours of the Virgin 'secundum usum Romane Curie', which were once in the volume, only the first leaf is preserved, prefixed to the Calendar. The Calendar is Flemish, which agrees with the writing and illumination: St. Nicholas of Tolentino (canonized 1446) is in the Litany.
