Manuscripts
ff. 1-320; f. 320v blank. [Otto von Passau]. [Vierundzwanzig Alten]. Incipit: Aller erste alte wiset dich minnende sele uff dich selber daz du vor uß betrahten solt. Explicit: An der heiligen himelfursten oben marien zů der lichtmesse. Des Jores do men zalte M ccc lxxx und sechs Jor. Amen. Anno xxxi Jor et cetera. Rubric: Diß ist der ane vang des bůches und vohet hie Amen. German. See W. Schmidt, Die vierundzwanzig Alten Ottos von Passau. Palaestra 212 (Leipzig 1938), for a list of the incunable editions and 113 manuscripts, including HM 1082 on pp. 85-86. In this manuscript, the names of the Elders are absent from the headings; the Discourse of the 13th Elder, f. 147v, begins incorrectly: "Got uesteclichen vergihe ich dritzehender alte lop und rům der ewigen wisheit . . . ," thus interrupting the alphabetical sequence of initials of each Discourse by use of a "G" instead of the expected "N" (I/J and U/V as one each; W at the end). Leaves missing between ff. 53-54 and 64-65 with the beginning of the eighth and ninth Elders' Discourses; f. 208rb, blank, but text is complete. The text is preceded by a chapter list and a prologue.
