Summary:
Manuscript 62 comprises three texts: (ff. 1r-1v and 4r-78v) the
Gospel according to Matthew, with glosses; (ff. 3r-3v) a general
prologue to the Gospels; and (ff. 79r-137v) the Gospel according to
Luke, with glosses. The prologue is found in between an incomplete
table of contents and the first page of Matthew (with blanks before
and after), and has not been identified as a separate text in the
catalogue of De Poorter (cf. bibliography). This might indicate
that originally all four Gospels were to be copied. Ultimately,
only Matthew was copied, and bound together with an older copy of
Luke. The first two texts are dated to the thirteenth century,
Matthew specifically to the 1220s-1230s. The text of Luke is
somewhat older, dating from the final quarter of the twelfth
century. Generally, both gospels are executed in a similar way.
Each page has a single column with the text, surrounded by marginal
glosses on each side, and interlinear glosses within the text. The
decoration in each of the gospels is different. Matthew contains
alternately red and blue initials and Roman chapter numbers. Luke
has only one red initial (the first; the rest is all black) while
the chapter numbers are Arabic. An ownership inscription for Ten
Duinen abbey is found on the final leaf of Matthew. [Summary by Dr.
