Notes: This image shows a leaf that was tipped on to the book's back fly leaf. The leaf is from a Book of Hours and contains readings for Compline of the Hours of the Virgin. This leaf is not related to the Suetonius manuscript to which it is attached. It may have been inserted when it belonged to Sir Thomas Phillipps, the avid British collector of manuscripts, who owned the book when it was bound in the nineteenth century.
