The sole known copy of the Collectio Pithouensis, made by the nuns of Chelles in the late eighth century (or not much later). The collection fills the complete manuscript (fol. 1-136) in its extant, mutilated form; eight quaterions are missing, which must have contained the first 29 pieces of the collection and the beginning of no 30 (Maassen, Geschichte p. 604).
Kéry, Collections p. 49.
