Extract

Lincoln College MS Latin 89 is really two manuscripts bound together, the second of which is the remains of an early 15th-century choirbook. In Coxe's catalogue of manuscripts in Oxford colleges and halls, no mention is made of the leaves containing music, although the copy in the Bodleian Library has a supplementary entry for the music, handwritten at the bottom of the page and easily missed. It is perhaps Coxe's omission that is responsible for the manuscript's exclusion from Anselm Hughes's invaluable hand-list and subsequently even from RISM.
