Leaf from an Antiphonary: Text (verso)

Cleveland Museum of Art

A sheet of music with black text and notes on red lines, featuring a large decorative letter "U" in the center; small white tape pieces hold the sheet in place on a white background. The sheet has a yellowed appearance with visible stains and a pattern of blue, green, and red floral designs. Black handwritten text appears in the upper-left corner. The text is written in Latin and appears to be in an old-fashioned style, with some words and phrases including "Gaudr", "angclo", "ni qnia", "lus", "no", "gruen", "app", "panm", and "it". The decorative letter "U" is surrounded by intricate designs.
