This source consists of six musical fragments, formerly used as binding strips of a 15th century Gesta Romanorum. The three horizontal strips form the bottom of a bifolio; the three vertical strips form a single folio which is blank on the verso. `Gaude virgo mater Christi' is the only 14th century composition and the only complete piece.
