MS. Canon. Liturg. 155

Augustinian calendar, laid out one month per page, written in red and black, approximately three-quarters full, with only some major feasts graded to ‘semiduplex’, ‘duplex’, ‘duplex minus’ and ‘duplex maius’. The feast of St Augustine is in red (28 August); his translation (28 February), ‘Conuersio sancti Augustini episcopi’ (5 May) and St Monica, his mother (4 May) are in red as festum duplex. Includes ‘Indulgentia ecclesie sancte Marie caritatis’ (4 April) and ‘consecratio altaris maioris et aliorum sex huius ecclesie caritatis’ (2 August) as festum duplex maius; and ‘Dedicatio ecclesie sancti marci’ as festum duplex (8 October). There are three feasts of St Mark (‘Sancti Marci euangeliste’, 25 April, in red as festum duplex; ‘Apparitio sancti marci euangeliste’, 25 June, in red; and ‘Translatio’, 31 January, in black). Other Venetian feasts include Hermagoras and Fortunatus (12 July), Magnus (6 October) and Justina of Padua (7 October). Contains Franciscan and Dominican saints: Peter of Verona (29 April), Dominic (5 August), Clare of Assisi (12 August), Francis (4 October) and Louis of Toulouse (19 August). Several saints have titles ‘canonicus regularis’. The months are headed by notes on their Hebrew and Greek names (apart from January), on the length of the solar and lunar month and on the number of hours in day and night. Verses on the ‘Egyptian’ days, which do not correspond to any of Hennig’s sets (1955), appear at the beginning and end of each month (apart from January, which lacks the verse at the beginning).

Two hymns for Matins on Sundays, with rubrics, followed by antiphons, ‘Primo dierum omnium ...’ (Chevalier, no. 15450); ‘Nocte surgentes uigilemus ...’ (Chevalier, no. 12035).

Psalms for Sunday Matins, Lauds, Little Hours, Vespers and Compline, followed by psalms for Matins, Lauds and Vespers during the week from Monday to Saturday in secular use, laid out as prose, without numbers, with titles ‘psalmus’ or ‘psalmus dauid’. Punctuated throughout with colon used to mark metrum and minor pauses, and punctus used to mark the ends of verses. The psalms are accompanied by antiphons, versicles, responses, etc. with rubrics. Subdivisions within psalms are not indicated, apart from psalm 118, subdivided into eleven 16-verse units. Psalms appointed to be recited first at Matins during the week in secular use (26, 38, 52, 68, 80 and 97) are marked with larger initials (see ‘Decoration’).
