Notes:

The initial begins a theological treatise entitle Meditationes, or Meditations, attributed here to Bernard of Clairvaux, the great twelfth-century Cistercian theologian. This manuscript contains a miscellany, or collection, of theological writings, including Book III of Gregory the Great's Moralia in Job, an anonymous treatise entitled Summa de trinitate, Hugh of St. Cher's Speculum ecclesiae (Mirror of the Church), and Innocent III's De miseria conditionis humanae (On the misery of the human condition). Texts of related content were sometimes produced and bound together in the same volume, constituting something of a "mini-library" on a particular subject.
