|While "German" copies (and [[Parma, Biblioteca Palatina, 3777]]) have the complete chapter (''Si quis sacro uelamine consecratam in -- sine spe coniugii maneat''), many ''deteriores'' break off with ''cohabitare tecto'', followed by spatium or not.

Manuscript latin 3681 of the Bibliothèque nationale de France is a parchment manuscript from the first half of the 12th century probably produced in the Cathedral of Notre-Dame du Puy-en-Velay. It contains Burchard's Liber decretorum.

Paris, BnF, lat. 3861 appears to be closely related to Montpellier, BM, 7 and Troyes, BM, 1386).

The manuscript consists of 180 folios, written in Carolingian minuscule, with a two-column layout. The decoration is simple, consisting mostly of small red initials and rubricated titles.

Note on f. 1r: Hunc codicem canonici anicienses bibliothecae colbertinae donarunt anno MDCLXXXI. Steph. Baluzius.

Contents

Burchard chapter fol. Significant Variants Literature
BU01.021 6r Between Cavendum et summopere […] per os dicat Gregorii and Et alibi. Dolens inquit […] diu stare non poterit is found the long version of the canon: Cur non videtur, cur non perpenditur quod a benedictio illi in maledictionem convertitur, quia ad hoc ut fiat hęreticus ordinatur. Et item. Quisquis contra hanc simoniacam […] tantummodo inaniter concupiscit […] stare non poterit.

For the short version, see editio princeps fol. 3rb: Cur non perpendit, quia benedictio illi in maledictionem converitur.

Fowler-Magerl, Fine Distinctions pp. 147–149; Fransen, Montpellier p. 306; Fransen, Valeur p. 6; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 22–23, 33
BU01.023 6v There is an addition after c. 23. As in many Italian copies, in BnF lat. 3861 c. 23 is followed by Si quis episcopus aut presbiter aut abbas per pecuniam […] et sit anathema sicut Simon Magus a Petro.

In the editio princeps fol. 3va, c. 23 ends ... detestatio ne percussus, and c. 24 begins: Quod non oporteat ordinationes episcoporum diu differri. Quoniam quidam metropolitanorum quantum comperimus ne ...

Fransen, Montpellier p. 306
BU01.234 28r No additions after the end of book one, but the last canon is reported as c. 232 (Quia vero plurimi episcoporum ex aliis […] est in troadam).

See fol. 32r in the editio princeps.

Dusil, Wissensordnungen p. 257 n. 258
BU02.018-024 30v-31r C. 23 (De rebus vero illorum vel peculiari) is displaced, so that the sequence of canons is "18, 23, 19-22, 24". See fol. 36r-36v of the editio princeps for the standard sequence. Fransen, Montpellier pp. 301, 307; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 33–34; Gneckow, Abhängigkeiten p. 135
BU02.239 - end part 43v Standard end of Book II. See fol. 54r of the editio princeps for the ending of book two („Wormser Ordnung Typ A“).
BU03.015 46r Addition after c. 15 (see fol. 58r of the editio princeps), namely an excerpt from JE 1317 beginning Pervenit ad me quod and ending per clericorum ambitum destruantur. Fransen, Montpellier p. 306; Galli/Rolker, Destroyed pp. 44–45
BU03.241- end part 64r-65v After book three (f. 64r) is added a synodal order. The most common one is Schneider's Ordo 5 but there is considerable variety, as Schneider's discussion of the individual ordines makes clear. See fol. 81 of the editio princeps for the ending of book three („Wormser Ordnung Typ A“).

Here: Ordo de celebrando concilio, incipit: Hora diei prima, ante solis ortum, eiciantur omnes ab ecclesia.

  • What is the wording between asserendi copia profluus and hęc in suis narrat affectibus? In BnF 3861: asserendi copia profluus eloquentię fructu fecundus hęc in suis narrat affectibus.
  • What is the wording between in malis promissis rescinde fidem and quod incaute novisti non facias? Here: in malis promissis rescinde fidem, in turpi voto, cave ut decretum quod incaute voluisti non facias.
