Calligraphic compendium of the official religious vows and regulations as they were in use at the Cistercian monastery in Arnsburg, Hesse, and the affiliated daughter monasteries during the tenure of Abbot Antonius Antoni (1676-1746) between the years 1714 to 1745 on various occasions, copied by the monk Ruthardus Schleicher, who names himself on the title, and who worked as provost in the Cistercian abbey Marienschloss from 1737 to 1748, a decade after the manuscript was written. The manuscript is divided into the following six sections: I. Ordo ad recipiendum Novitias secundum morem sacri Ordinis nostri cisterciensis. 1728 (S. 1-32). - II. Ordo professionis monialium in capitulo (pp. 33-44). - III. Ordo professionis monialium in ecclesia (pp. 45-74). - IV.

Ordo Professionis monialium in Ecclesiam quando concurrit cum investituram Novitiarum (pp. 139-158). The four-part coat of arms on the title, flanked by three angels and adorned by a miter and two croziers, shows the Arnsburg eagle in the lower left field; diagonally across the escutcheon runs the nested Cistercian bar (here in the colors black and yellow); in the center of the escutcheon is the depiction of a swan, the heraldic animal of Abbot Anthony. The illustrations repeatedly show miter, crozier, aspergillum, aspersorium, angel, cross, etc. - Some finger spotting, front inner joint chipped..
