Summary:
Hugo, a canon of Saint Donatian's Collegiate Church, donated this
manuscript in the 12th century to Ter Doest Abbey. The manuscript
is a composite manuscript that contains two Bible texts with the
Glossa ordinaria. The illumination is similar in both books. The
document contains copies of the Gospel of Lucas and the Acts of the
Apostles. The Glossa Ordinaria mainly consist of quotes from Church
Fathers and early medieval authors: Jerome, Augustine, Bede,
Gregory the Great and Origen. The pastedowns contain fragments of
land taxes from Saint Donatian's (c. 1120-1130). It lists several
contemporaries of Charles the Good: Haket, Labred de Rodanburg,
Basilius notarius, Bertulfus son of Froolfus, Eremboldus, Fromoldus
junior. The manuscript's page layout follows the typical one for
bible glosses. The text is in the center, written in large
protogothic script. The glosses are written between the lines of
the text and around the text in smaller script. Each new gloss is
introduced by a paragraph initial. The initial indicating the start
of the Acts is thrice the size of the other initials in the
manuscript. Like the other initials in the text, it is executed
mainly in red pigment, with green and yellow details. The
manuscript has an early Cistercian binding (12th - 13th century).
