'... Epistolarium per totius anni circulum secundum Curiam Roma-nam', both for Sundays and Holy days, wanting two leaves after fol. 51 and one or two at the end. There is a late inscription 'Hoc Epistolarium est Sancti Syxti de Placentia', and the internal evidence also shows that the volume was written for the Benedictine abbey of St. Sixtus at Piacenza. There is a litany at fol. 44v.
