Arras, Bibliothèque Municipale 941 (341)

A 13th-century manuscript containing part of a New Testament. The back flyleaf in Ars nova notation contains a 3-part Credo fragment, dated c.1360. The verso was previously stuck to the back cover; its contents are largely illegible but appear to be a virelai and a ballade.
