Copied by a single scribe - in Brussels, at the court of Mary of Hungary (daughter of Philip the Fair and Juana of Spain), Regent of the Netherlands 1531-55; or perhaps (GGTMontserrat), as the book is very different scribally from 765, 769, 771, 776, it may not come from Brussels; possibly from France?
