'...Psalterium Dauid', Written in 1266 in Padua (?) by Johannes de Gaibana
'...Psalterium Dauid', with canticles, etc.: preceded by a calendar (wanting Sept.-Oct.), and followed by a Hymnal (fol. 101v), and 'Officium sancte Marie' (fol. 134). There are musical notes. The calendar contains many original and added obits of persons at Padua: there are also later (15th cent.) obits, explained by the statement (in an 18th cent. hand), 'Fuit reverendissimi capituli Sancti Petri in montibus Carneae: in antiqua tabula qua erat prius colligatum', cf. fol. 131v.
