A Discantus partbook from a set of six volumes. Perhaps copied by Michael Kittelius. Inscription in Bassus volume names Kittelius as owner rather than scribe, but Kittelius' documented scribal activity suggests possibility he may also have copied WrocS 14. Copied in Breslau, for use in local evangelical services, probably at Church of St. Mary Magdalene. Later transferred to Breslau Stadtbibliothek. Missing since World War II; contents and composers known from BohH.

Inscription in present manuscript (see below) names Kittelius as owner rather than scribe, but Kittelius' documented scribal activity suggests possibility he may also have copied WrocS 14.
