Binding: Contemporary German (Scheyern, Benedictines, Kyriß workshop no. 30) blind-tooled pigskin over wooden boards; two clasps lost. Title label at the head of the upper cover describing the first volume as ‘Tercia pars' and the third volume as ‘Prima pars'; this order was followed when the volumes assigned shelfmarks by the Bodleian Library. On the upper covers fillets form a border; within this is a repeated square stamp with a quatrefoil; the same tool, forming a saltire, subdivides the inner rectangle; on volume 1 the same tool also forms a lozenge-shaped figure further subdividing the inner rectangle; the triangular compartments formed by this stamp are filled with a large rosette stamp, a palm-leaf stamp, or a floral ornament within a merrythought. On the lower cover fillets form a frame; the central compartment is subdivided by diagonal fillets and is decorated with a stamp with three flowers, a knotwork stamp, a stamp with a scroll lettered ‘maria', the palm-leaf stamp, a large and small rosette, a coat of arms and two floral ornaments. For the stamps see Kyriß pl. 67, nos 1, 3-6, 8-9.
