    Summary:
    A single leaf containing the beginning of the hymn Adorna thalamum tuum Syon, for the Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

    Notes:
    The Latin text is written in a tall gothic book hand in black ink. Initial letters are in black and red with pen-work decoration. Musical notation is square black notes on a red 4-line staff.
    The recto shows a large initial A historiated with the scene of the Presentation (Luke 2.25).
    The top margin has old folio numbers 222 and 495. .
    Another 3 leaves of this ms. are Morgan Library M.870.1, 2, 3.
    Probably written at Regensburg, ca. 1310. The name "Gerwirch" is written beside an illumination on one of the Morgan leaves. This is likely the name of the female donor.
