Notes: This page contains the end of the Enchiridion, a handbook of Christian doctrine written by St. Augustine (354-430), bishop of the north African city of Hippo and one of the Doctors of the Church. The inscriptions that appear after the end of the text include information that helps to locate the manuscript. They include the name of the scribe, Didactus, and an ex libris that denounces anyone who would remove the book from its library: "Hic est liber Sancte Marie de Benevivere qui abstulerit anathema sit" (This book is from Santa Maria of Benevivere; whoever removes it is cursed). The prayer and partial alphabet in the middle of the page are later additions.
