summary

The supplement to the Psalms, a brief text containing Eichah (Lamentations) and Daniel’s Supplication (Daniel 9:4-19) was printed four decades prior. It was likely rebound with the Psalms due to a deficiency in its original binding (the final 3 leaves are lacking from Lamentations - 4:19 to 5:22).
ff. (160), 13 (of 16). Browned. Contemporary limp vellum, worn. 8vo.
