The manuscript (from Fontenay) contains three canon law collections: the Panormia (siglum Po in Brett's edition), the Collectio CXXXVI capitulorum) (essentially an abbreviated form of the Collectio X partium), and the very small the Collectio XXX capitulorum). The latter two collections were first described by Gérard Fransen and more recently analysed by Dominique Stutzmann.

3rd quarter of 12th century; two columns; Prov. Abbey of Fontenay (Burgundy).
