Abstract
An entirely handwritten psalter which seems to be of Spanish origin. This book of plainsong was used to celebrate the Office of Darkness during Triduum Pascal (Feria V in Coena Domine, lectione IX-Feria VI in Parasceve, lectione IX-Sabbato Sancto, lectione IX) and it begins with the Lamentations of Jeremiah which are sung on Maundy Thursday. The text is rubricated. The antiennes are decorated with 70 ornamental letters, 35 are written in red, 3 in black and 21 in red and blue.An entirely handwritten psalter which seems to be of Spanish origin.
