Note 23 — Chapter VI · STRASBURG AND REUTLINGEN

An M with a bear’s tooth, and two others, a D representing a saint sitting on the desert with what looks like a monkey (perhaps St. Roch and his dog), and an O with an angel with large wings, are to be found in the Tractatus Consultatorii Venerandi Magistri Henrici de Gorychum, printed by Quentell, ‘anno supra Jubileum tertio.’ These initials are generally too smudgy to be copied.

In this same book, the chapter ‘De Observatione Festorum’ commences with the O with a fool’s head.
