'...Officium beate Marie, dicendum cum quindecim antiphonis, psalmis ["spis"] & orationibus infrascriptis & cum sanctis suis sexaginta nominibus & letanijs': many prayers are added (some Italian) and St. Bernard's Verses ('Illumina oculos', etc.).

The Office is not the ordinary Hours, but a form for private use (?). The fly-leaves at beginning are part of a 12th cent. Life of St. Barbara.
