Indexing Notes

The rubric (visible on the upper turn-in on right-side of the verso) indicates that this chant was to be sung at (or toward) the choir (ad chorum). Followed by a partly legible rubric apparently indicating "Sive M. in morte". Media vita, 003732, has concordances as the Nunc Dimittis antiphon on 1. Quad, so this may be the case here also. The rubric following this suggests that the antiphons are part of a procession (Iste ordo procession... neatur usque dominican palm...)
