[MISSAL LEAF]
Leaf in Latin, decorated manuscript on vellum
[Germany
14th century]
From a handsome and appealing Missal, this leaf with prayers against those who cause schisms, Jews "non flectamus genua" ('who do not bend the knee', presumably before Christian holy items) and pagan peoples and their idols. The text ends in a long red rubric describing in detail the beginning of a procession of the Cross and chalice of the community
Single leaf, with single column of 21 lines of a tall and elegant Germanic gothic hand, some lines marked for singing with red neumes, red rubrics and initials, one additional reading in lower margin in a red penwork ornamental box, original folio no. 'C', reused in a later bookbinding and hence cockled and with small holes, scuffs and stains, overall fair condition, 290 by 190mm
