  • Also described by Jonas, MMDC and A.W. Byvanckgenootschap (database RKD, The Hague).
  • Textual: (ff. 1r-2r) Incipit: "De humilitate Rollonis et quomodo reduxit corpus beati andoeni archiepiscopi Rothomagensis...". - (ff. 50v-74v) Various continuations on the Gesta normannorum ducum, among which a continuation by Robert of Torigny. - (f. 122r-v) Incipit: "Aquila prophetizans de anglia. Arbor fertilis a primo trunco - qui pacificatio regno occident...". - (ff. 138v-139v) Incipit: "Cest la pes et lordenance fete entre excellenz princes loys roy de france et henri roy dengleterre". - (f. 143v) Partly in French. Incipit: "Clodoveus primus rex francorum...". - (f. 144r) Incipit: "Aquis grani dicitur ays...". - (f. 144r-v) Incipit: "Trucidare saxones soliti cambrenses...". - (ff. 190v-191r) Aethicus Ister is probably a fictitious traveller/author. In the text, (a Pseudo-) Jerome claims to be the translator of Ister's work. It is currently thought that Virgil of Salzburg is the true author of the text.
