Chapters with marginal titles/summaries in red, decorated with blue initials with red penwork flourishing (minor staining, but generally fine).  Size of leaf: c.290 × 195mm. 32 lines, written as verse, the text comprising: ?Mentis in excessu fit. celum vidit apertum [?] [catchwords:] Quod tres Herodes? (ed. P.E. Beichner, Aurora: Petri Rigae Biblia Versificata (Notre Dame, 1965), II, pp. 645?48 lines 483?547 in the Evangelium),  From an unusual copy of a popular text, with a distinguished provenance.  The parent manuscript was doubly unusual: the vast majority of manuscripts are French and 13th century: this is English and 14th-century. One other English 14th-century copy is San Marino, Huntington Library, HM 31189. Because the text is composed in short lines of verse, copies are sometimes in a tall, narrow, ?holster? format (cf. [MLC 361] lot 69).  Provenance: (1) Apparently from an English monastic library: the parent volume (see below) is recorded to have had a 16th-century inscript
