Leaf from Liber II, Titulus 7 (De usuris), paragraphs 4-8, of the Summa de poenitentia et matrimonio, a manual for confessors. The parchment leaf, written in the mid-13th century, probably in southern France, is frame-ruled in lead and written in 2 columns of 33 lines (110 x 78 mm.) in proto-Gothic script. Paragraph marks alternate between red and blue, one with extensions; the running headings (II on verso, L on recto) indicate that this leaf is from Liber II.
