Nürnberg, Stadtbibliothek, fragment lat. 9 (olim Centurio V, 61)

2 late 14thC flyleaves detached from the parent ms. Cent-V, 61. They were apparently a bifolio belonging to a collection of motets in Ars nova notation. A German provenance is suggested by German texts and a reference to Louis of Bavaria.
