Paris, Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal, 713 (written in a single hand saec. XII2/2) contains canon law material which today is seen as the combination of two originally distinct collections, dubbed Arsenal I and II. The present analysis the material of both collections has the key LP. As Brett established, some canons found in Arsenal 713B were used directly for the Panormia (57 canons in all eight books) and the Collectio Caesaraugustana I (80 canons). These materials, found today between fol. 129 and 154 (but not on all folios) was gathered at an unknown place (presumably in northern France) before the Panormia was produced in the early twelfth century. Collectively, they are known as the second Arsenal collection or Arsenal II. Like Arsenal I, this collection is only known from the Arsenal manuscript where it is found on fols. 129r, 131r–135v, 136v–138v, 139v–140r, and 149r–152r.
