LC copy has sewn in between covers and text block (as anchors for endpapers now gone) fragments from two different manuscripts of ca. 1300, probably from northern France. That in front is from a breviary or diurnal; that at end, from an unidentified monastic book of inspirational readings (De abbate qui latronem convertit, et al.).
