Paris, BnF, lat. 4283 is a composite manuscript. The first quaternio is the missing first quire of Troyes, BM, 1386, a copy of the Liber decretorum. The rest of BnF lat. 4283 is a miscellany of three small collections. The second of them (= Collectio canonum II in Paris, BnF, lat. 4283) is found on fols. 58r–65v and 77r–v (= part C1 of the whole manuscript).
It contains excerpts from the Liber decretorum of Burchard, a letter of Peter Damian to pope Alexander II dealing with simony, excerpts from the Theodosian Code, a number of forgeries, an extract from a letter of Hincmar of Reims (Migne PL 126. 253–254) and canons from the council held at Reims by pope Calixtus II in 1119.
Note that only the non-Burchardian material was entered into the Clavis canonum database.
