RISM B/IV 3: 14./15. Jh.; 235 Blätter Pergament + je 2 Vorsatz- und Nachstoßblätter (Papier, 18. Jh.), 155 x 115 mm Moderne Bleistiftfoliierung von f. 1-235 sowie originale Reklamanten. Je Seite bis zu 4, ab f. 222 fünf rote Vierliniensysteme mit Quadratnotation (ganz vereinzelt mit mensuralen Elementen). - Einband: 18. Jh.; braunes Leder mit Goldprägung.
Diese, mit Ausnahme der Nachträge des 15. Jh., in sich geschlossene und prächtig illuminierte Handschrift, die vermutlich aus dem späten 14. oder frühen 15. Jahrhundert stammt, ist auf dem Vorsatzblatt (18. Jh.) als Psalterium cum Hymnario secundum ordinis B. Dominici bezeichnet (vergleiche hierzu auch f. 210). Sie stammt mit größter Wahrscheinlichkeit aus einem italienischen Dominikanerkloster.

With the exception of the addenda of the 15th Century, this is a complete and beautifully illuminated manuscript, probably from the late 14th or early 15th Century. It has 18th-century covers, and the inscription on the flyeaf, 'Psalterium cum Hymnario secundum ordinis B. Dominici', which means (see also f. 210) that it originates most probably from an Italian monastery.
