Footnotes

Bound in two volumes this copy includes the calendar (in the first quire of the breviary), the summer part of the breviary, and the Psalter (which also contains the text of various services). Ruremund and Bryckman also published the winter part of the breviary, the proprium sanctorum (in two parts, summer and winter) and the adventus domini secundum usum Sarum, each with its own title-page. ESTC records six copies of this work, none of which appear to include the summer part ("Pars estivalis") of the breviary found here.

Provenance: Crane family bookplate, with motto "Qui corvos pascit pascere potest grues"; Sotheby's, 28 November 2007, lot 39.
