This manuscript on paper, bound in parchment, is composed of 82 leaves, separated into 12 quires that are sewn together, some of them incomplete. Blaise Hory, pastor from Gléresse, wrote the religiously inspired texts in French, Latin and German. They include prayers, expressions of thanks and poems. The manuscript was owned by the Marval family, who donated it to the Neuchâtel library in May 1842. (beg)
