Manuscript on parchment of seventeen miniatures (all versos), formerly inserted in MS 287, which were removed and rebound in their present form when recognized as the work of the 19th-century facsimilist, Caleb Wing. They were intended to replace originals excised from MS 287 at an uncertain date. As suggested by the format of MS 287, there were probably only sixteen miniatures in the original program
