Missal leaf. Location undetermined, possibly southern France, or Italy, 15th century

Scope and Contents
Missal page beginning with the communion and post-communion prayers for the fourth Sunday of Lent. The communion prayer is from Psalm 122 (LXX 121): verses 3-4. This leaf has unusual spelling, however, and contains multiple abbreviations.
The second paragraph is the post-communion prayer (final sentence missing). Following on from this is a prayer for the Monday of the fourth week of lent. "Collect: Praesta quaesumus omnipotens deus ut observationes sacras annua devotione recolentes et corpore tibi placeamus et mente, Per [dominum nostrum….]. "
The remainder of the page is a reading from ‘Solomon’s Wisdom’ 1 Kings 3: 16-22, (which is likely to continue on the next page).
