Troyes, BM, 1979 (saec. XI1/2, Eastern France or Western Germany according to Mordek) is a manuscript containing both ecclesiastical and secular law, and dogmatic texts. It is the sole known copy of the Collectio CCXXXIV capitulorum (found on fols. 41v-44r, 158r-210v, 221r-243v).

The quinio fol. 211-220 was added later. According to Schmitz it contains legal texts including excerpts from Benedictus Levita. He pointed to similarities to Paris, BnF, lat. 4628 and Den Haag, Huis van het boek, 10 D 2, two codices preserving an otherwise lost capitulary collection from Reims according to Mordek.
