A Collectare of some Italian diocese ('archipresbyter', fol. 16v, etc.), with some hymns, lections, etc. The Propria de Tempore and Sanctorum are in one series, but wanting all before Quinquagesima: the Commune Sanctorum begins on fol. 65, but is imperf. at end. Leaves are also lost after fols. 6, 9, 23. There is musical notation, usually on one red line.

Custodial History

The expression in the collect connected with Stt. Nazarius and Celsus (fol. 52v), 'populus tuus qui sub tantis sanctorum martyrum tuorum ... patrocini[i]s sunt constituti', may point to the neighbourhood of Milan.
