Summary
The present fascicle supplements the 2007 edition of the two anonymous poems Liber prefigurationum Christi et Ecclesie and Liber de gratia Noui Testamenti. It offers a number of improvements at various levels to the original edition. The main witness of the text has been re-examined, which has resulted in the uncovering of some complementary readings, especially in the Liber de gratia. A completely revised edition of this text has been printed, together with complete new indices to both poems.
