Two copies of the A’ version of the collection of Anselm of Lucca are somewhat later than the other copies described above, namely those in the Mss Parma, Biblioteca Palatina 976 and Graz, UB II. 351. The Parma copy is closely related to the copy of the A’ version in the Ms Florence, BML San Marco 499. The Parma copy contains excerpts from the treatise De misericordia et iustitia of Alger of Lüttich which would later be used by Gratian. The present analysis (AC) is based on that copy. Only the texts not found in other copies of the version A’ are registered. The version of the collection in the Mss Parma and Graz contains excerpts from the 6th and 7th books of the Panormia at the end of book ten. Some of these excerpts are also found in the copy of the version A’ in the Ms Florence, BML Ashburnham 53. The excerpts from the Panormia which came ultimately from the Digest are said to be from the „Pandects“. The nomenclature Pandects rather than Digest is typical for Ivonian collections. Excerpts from the Institutiones are inscribed ex libro constitutionum, a usage also found in Ivonian collections. This is presumably the version used for the second redaction of the Concordia discordantium canonum of Gratian.
