Falconer Madan, et al., A summary catalogue of western manuscripts in the Bodleian Library at Oxford which have not hitherto been catalogued in the Quarto series (7 vols. in 8 [vol. II in 2 parts], Oxford, 1895-1953; reprinted, with corrections in vols. I and VII, Munich, 1980), vol. IV, no. 19426

Custodial History

The calendar points unmistakably to the neighbourhood of Aquileia (Hilarius, Mar. 16: Cantus, Mar. 31: Hermagoras, July 12), but is in some respects like those referred to at MS. Canon. Liturg. 297 (Cunigunda, Willibrord, etc.). Liberalis of Treviso is added, Apr. 27, and on Aug. 19 is 'Hac die gloriosus princeps Ottakarus Bohemie rex in conflictu Rudolphi Romanorum regis occiditur Mocclxxix. Vocatus martyr (in the original hand on Mar. 5) seems to be unknown to hagiographers. The tables of years run from 1216 to 1324.
