D-X H 94

Processionale, 1541, probably prepared in Gregoriushaus in Emmerich for the Dom in Xanten. Low Countries staff notation on ink staves.
The second part, starting with the rubric Antiphone versiculi et collecte pro lotione altarium edis sancti victoris martiris patronis zanthensis ..., is not from the original hand.

The rubrics often indicate the persons who are to sing the chants (Tres domini, duo pueri, etc.), and also the places (In processione versus capellam s. Andree etc.).
