Description
The text is from the Book of Hours translated into Dutch, probably by Geert Grote. Most Books of Hours were in Latin at that time, but Grote thought that even lay men should be able to read religious books!!
The text is in black.
Part of the text on this leaf reads, beginning at the top of the recto: ..apostolen der martelaren der consessoren der maeghden en alre heiligher sielen. O morghen sterre daerre van die sonne. Ic opheffe mijn handen totti. En ic ondoe mijn oghen totti soete moeder.
