A codex principally containing monophonic passions, lamentations, hymns, German texts and a Czech cantilena. The manuscript is in 4 parts or fascicles; the added polyphony is mostly in the last gathering (ff. 97-120) which is dated by watermark evidence to c. 1431-35. It shares some repertory with the St. Emmeram codex which it apparently pre-dates by several years.
