ff. 43, 43b. Two pieces, consisting of the melody in the ordinary notation on a 5-line stave, with small letters (a-g) written underneath, apparently representing the bass notes, in a sort of Organ tablature. They are each divided into four and five 'punctus,' or movements, with occasional instructions for playing, such as ' ouert,' 'clos ' (which appear to refer to the stops), and 'return' (sc. repeat ?).
ff. 43b-44b. Portions of three musical pieces, consisting of the melody written on a single stave of 5 lines, in square and diamond notes – mostly black – under which small letters (from a to g) are marked, apparently for an organ accompaniment. 1. 'Ades . . . firmissime fidem teneamus Trinitatis.' f. 43b; 2. 'Tribum quern non abhorruit.' f.44; 3. 'Flos vernalis, stirps regalia.' Imperfect at the end. f. 44b.
