Dominica in octavis Pasche . Feria ija de feria Responsorium locutus est & cetera'. 'Synodus Ebor.' occurs often in the margin. At end (fol. 125) are some special rules, and 'Explicit Tabula & cetera'. Fols. 1, 134-7 are fragments from a Latin 13th cent. missal (with musical notes) which Dr. Η. M. Bannister pronounces to be of the use of York.
