A Collectare, stated by Frere, Written in about 1420-1430 in Bohemia (?)
A Collectare, stated by Frere (Bibl. Mus.-Lit., p. 32) to be Augustinian, containing:
- A Psalter (fol. 5: wanting a leaf or two after fol. 145)
- Office for the Dead with Litany (fol. 155)
- Hymnal (fol. 167)
- Collects, etc. (fol. 195, wanting leaves after fol. 378)
Among the names in the Litany are Stanislaus, Wenceslaus, Florian and Ludmilla ('Bohemorum patrona' fol. 330v): so the volume is probably connected with Bohemia. The date is fixed to within a few years by calendarial notes, fols. 379-81, cf. 1: a German rubric is at fol. 381v ('Die tauell czayget wie uil man scoll abcziehen vber m cccc xxxv iar nach Christi gepurd, etc.').
