    Note:
    Date: Based on colophon: (f. 218v) "Hunc tragediarum senece librum Inchoavit frater thomas feye. prior huius loci, et fere usque ad medium septime [second scribe starts writing on f. 132v) continuavit. preventusque morte diem clausit extremum. Residuum vero usque ad finem conscripsit frater Cornelius heyns monachus. Ac frater jacobus egidii Monachus glosavit eundem. Acta sunt hec anno domini M°cccc° Ixxvii° Oretur".
    Origin: Copied and owned by the Cistercians (Abdij ter-Doest) at Lissewege (f. 219r): "Iste liber pertinet ecclesie beate marie de capella thosan Inflandria iuxta brugis". Script inspired by the writing style of the Ter Doest scriptorium in the early 13th century, according to Lieftinck 1964.
    Script: According to a note on f. 218v, copied by brother Thomas Feye, prior of the monastery. After his death the text was finished by brother Cornelius Heyns. - According to the same note glosses written by Jacobus Egigius.
