First volume (Temporale) of the two-volume gradual with liturgical
songs that Abbot Laurentius of Heidegg from Muri Abbey purchased
from the convent of canonesses at Säckingen in 1532, after the
furnishings of Muri Abbey, along with the liturgical books, were
destroyed in the Second War of Kappel. The abbot had the large
pen-flourish initial at the beginning painted over with the miter,
the abbatial crozier, his own coat of arms and that of the abbey.
