HISTORY: Two fragments cut down from a single leaf from near the end of the "Werden Glossary': probably the last page of the original book. They are, or were, in the possession of the Fi.ingling family of Rath near Köln. "Discovered in the binding of a small book of prayers in 1968, these fragments were examined by Professor Bernhard Bischoff, who kindly put at our disposal photographs made at the same time" (Harlow in Bischoff et al. 1988: 9); these photographs were published in Bischoff et al. 1988. Even before then, however, the leaves had become "untraced" once again, according to Harlow loc. cit.
