Oblong format, 305 x 147 mm. 16 folios; collation not ascertained because of the tightness of the binding. Foliation largely added by the copyist. Unused ruled staves on ff. 16r-v.

Exurgite Mortales, &c. & a Magnificat all with Instrumts del Revdo. P. Fusetti. M.S. in score. look well.' (See below for the other manuscripts to which this entry refers.)
