There are lacunae between fols. 13 and 14, and 25 and 26, and many pages are stained and frayed along the edges.
The manuscript probably comprises at least two distinct parts: I, fols. 1–25 and 32–39; II: fols. 40 – 55, possibly more (possibly fols. 1–16 and 18 and fols. 31–39 should be seen as two parts distinct from pt. I). Fols. 26–31 belonged originally to what is now
Turku, Library of Åbo Akademi, D 71/161
.
One column, nine lines of notation. Aside from the staves, no discernible ruling other than fols. 40–55, which are blind-ruled, and fols. 26–31 (which belong to D71/161), which are ruled in ink.
Varieties of Gothic Cursive by several different scribes of
saec. XVI
, additions in hands of
saec. XVII
(fols. 15–16, 17–18).
Decadent square notation on four black lines, and square mensural notation on four black lines (fols.
34v
–
37v
); mensural notation of
saec. XVII
on five (black) lines (
15r
–
16r
).
Monochromatic pen-drawn initials of different sizes, the highest grade modestly flourished; the initials of songs are of various types, mostly pen-drawn Gothic versals decorated with diamond shapes. Rubrics usually distinguished only by their larger size.
Modern binding of blue cardboard, with a label pasted to the spine reading ‘Liber Ecclesiae Tammelensis’.
A Lutheran liturgical collection, comprising what were originally probably distinct fragments of a
gradual
and an
antiphonary
. The earliest parts of the former appear to have been copied
c
.
1596
and added to at the beginning of the seventeenth century; the latter seems to be of similar date. These manuscripts were used in
Tammela
, where they may well have been copied.

: ‘Liber Ecclesiae Tammelensis’, and in a somewhat later hand ‘(skrifven 1596)’ and ‘(af år 1596)’
Fol.
[b]v
: ‘G. I. L. Rym[ättylensis?]’. Probably not (at least given the apparently completely different patronymic)
Georgius Martini Lepus
, curate at
Tammela
in 1581–1602 (see
Leinberg 1903, 208
).
The draft letter on fols.
17v
and
18v
, signed in
1618
by
Hans Mårthensen Arm
at the
manor of Saari
(probably the one in Tammela) also indicates that the book (or one of its parts) was in early use at Tammela.
Given the date of this manuscript, the early-sixteenth-century curate of Tammela,
Peder Kurck
, cannot have been involved in the introduction of this book to the parish (
pace
http://bibbild.abo.fi/Tammela/liber/index.htm
).
The curate of
Tammela
,
Nils Magnus Tolpo
, brought them to
Turku
in
1826
in response to the cathedral chapter’s request for the older books of parishes to be sent for inspection. The book was returned to
Tammela
but appears to have been deposited by Tolpo in the library of the
Turku Swedish Lyceum
in
1834
(
Schalin 1946, 5–6, 10, 15
;
Schybergson 1939, 10, 17
). That library was transferred to
Åbo Akademi
after the institute’s foundation in
1918
.
Inside front cover in pencil: ‘100, 1 Liber Ecclesiae Tammelensis 1596 B:3’ and the current shelfmark ‘D3/162’ and ‘16’. A paper sticker reading ‘GYMNASIUM I ÅBO tillhörig’. On the front flyleaf a blue stamp with the legend ‘LYCEUM ÅBO 1810’.
