General Description

2 parchment folios, which once served as the binding of an account book of 1615 in the southern Austrian castle of Trumau. May have come from a Flemish Cistercian monastery or from the St. Niklaskolleg in Vienna [the 'Collegium Trilingue' of St. Niklas, in Singerstraße] (CCCM); possibly copied in Low Countries, perhaps at Bruges (activity of T. Fabri at Church of St. Donatian in Bruges documented by StroMB).

RISM Description

RISM B/IV 3: Um 1400; 2 Blätter Pergament, 325 x 228 mm. Keine originale Foliierung sichtbar; moderne Bleistift-Foliierung von 1-2. Je Seite 9 Fünf liniensysteme mit schwarz-roter Mensuralnotation.

Dieses vermutlich um 1400 geschriebene und mit farbigen Initialminiaturen versehene Doppelblatt diente als Einband zu Rechnungen von 1615 aus dem stiftlichen Schloß Trumau in Niederösterreich. Nach brieflicher Mitteilung von P. Hermann Watzl S. O. Cist., Heiligenkreuz, könnte das Fragment über die flämischen Zisterzienserklöster oder aus dem St. Niklaskolleg in Wien nach Heiligenkreuz gekommen sein. Für die letztere Vermutung spricht die Tatsache, daß der Pater immediatus des St. Niklaskollegs jeweils gleichzeitig auch Abt der Zisterzienser von Heiligenkreuz war.

The upper part of fol. 1r preserves part of a French song (no ascription to Fabri), with the end of a cantus, tenor and contra. The explicit of the text reads "some(?) soubimez a faire vo plaisir loyaulment." A textual residuum is also extant. The first line on Fol. 2r contains the end of a contratenor of a hitherto unknown Dutch song, with a textual residuum starting with "in vruechdijn (...) al mijn (...)" .
