A Discantus partbook from a set of four volumes. The main scribe may also have copied the second part of FlorC 2495 (Rifkin), though Fenlon/Haar disagree; the instrumental pieces (at the end of the Cantus only) are later additions in a different hand. Copied in Florence. Provenance before their acquisition by the Biblioteca Palatina unknown.
