A leaf of an Antiphoner containing part of the Office of st. Justus, Written perhaps late in the 11th century at Winchester
A leaf of an Antiphoner containing part of the Office of st. Justus, with neums, reproduced in E. W. B. Nicholson, Early Bodleian Music, pl. 45, 46. Until 1909 this was at the beginning of MS. Selden Supra 36. A small fragment of the same MS. is fols. 73-4 of that number. Fols, i-ii, 2-7 are practically blank. The rev. Η. M. Bannister considers that this was written at Winchester.
