Summary:
Manuscript 59 is a copy of the gospel of Matthew with the Glossa
Ordinaria from the third quarter of the twelfth century (c.
1170-1180), written possibly in the area of Liège. The layout is
similar to the other glossed copies of this gospel, with the text
itself in the central column, surrounded by two columns of marginal
glosses. Two folia (ff. 9-10) are misbound and contain part of the
prologue. On the verso of the latter leaf is a remarkable diagram
in the shape of a series of concentric circle, carrying the title
'Ordo figure subscriptus patrie reditum docet' and containing
virtues, the gifts of the Holy Spirit and the beatitudes. The
manuscript is bound in blindstamped calf over wooden boards.
