Book of Hours, FOL 48
Description
Leaf is from a French or Dutch Book of Hours from the late fifteenth century. Twenty long lines with illuminated floral boarder; ruling in red ink. Script Gothic Textualis, as indicated by diamond-shaped serifs at the feet of letters, representing a feature of formata-grade script. Additionally, the script shows a regular use of a round “s” at the ends of words with a 2-shaped “r” after “o.”
The leaf contains text from the Seven Penitential Psalms (also found in the Psalms of David), numbers 37 and 50. Recto 37:17-23 and begins 50:3. Verso continues 50:3-11.
The gold leaf appears to be flaking off, possibly due to normal wear and tear. There are eight 1-2 line initials in gold surrounded by a blue or red ink background on both the recto and verso. The blue and red colored backgrounds of the letters alternate, excepting for the recto where the “I” in “Intende” has a red background and the start of Psalms 50, “Miserere” with the letter “M,” is also red. The blue and red decoration scheme with extremely fine penwork is typical of Gothic manuscripts.

Psalms of David 37:17-23
17 …supergaudeant mihi inimici mei et dum commoventur pedes mei super me magna locuti sunt
18 Quoniam ego in flagella paratus et dolor meus in conspectu meo semper
19 Quoniam iniquitatem meam adnuntiabo et; cogitabo pro peccato meo
20 Inimici autem mei vivent et confirmati sunt super me et multiplicati sunt qui oderunt me inique
21 Qui retribuunt mala pro bonis detrahebant mihi quoniam sequebar bonitatem
22 Non derelinquas me Domine Deus meus ne discesseris a me
23 Intende in adiutorium meum Domine salutis meae

Verso Transcription:
Psalms of David 50:3-11
3 …miserationum tuarum: dele iniquitatem meam.
4 Amplius lava me ab iniquitate mea: et a peccato meo munda me.
5 Quoniam iniquitatem meam ego cognosco: et peccatum meum contra me est semper.
6 Tibi soli peccavi, et malum coram te feci: ut iustificeris in sermonibus tuis, et vincas cum iudicaris.
7 Ecce enim in iniquitatibus conceptus sum: et in peccatis concepit me mater mea.
8 Ecce enim veritatem dilexisti: incerta et occulta sapientiae tuae manifestasti mihi.
9 Asperges me domine ysopo, et mundabor: lavabis me, et super nivem dealbabor.
10 Auditui meo dabis gaudium, et laetitiam: et exultabunt ossa humiliata.
11 Averte faciem tuam a peccatis meis: et omnes iniquitates meas dele.
