Three separate parts of a Spanish Franciscan Gradual of the usual Roman type
Three separate parts of a Spanish Franciscan Gradual of the usual Roman type, each having a separate foliation:
- P. 1. The Proprium de Tempore for the four Sundays in Advent and 2 (p. 50) for the great feasts from Christmas to Corpus Christi. A leaf is wanting after p. 109
- P. 202. 'In solemnitate S. Corporis Christi ad missam sequentia, frater Julianus Contreras scribebat A.D. M.DC.XCI', in a different hand from artt. 1-2. The foliation of this part begins with fol. 26. On p. 219 'officium s. Paschalis Bailon nostri ordinis' (a Franciscan) is entered in a later hand, but the office itself is wanting
The MS. is stated to be one of four volumes of a Gradual written for use in Mexico.
