Image title
Miniature of a corpse lying in an open grave in a churchyard, with a scroll above reading 'Circumdederunt me dolores mortis et pericla inferni inuenerunt me. Sperantem in domino misericordia circumdabit'. To the right, a demon emerges from the earth and snatches at the nude soul which rises from the corpse, with a scroll reading 'Libricus fuit'. Two angels fly towards the soul, with scrolls reading 'Penituit et elemosinam dedit' and 'Sinite illam: iustum et impium iudicabit dominus'. Above is God the Father surrounded by red angels. With a full foliate border, including a lower miniature of mourners surrounding a body being laid in a grave, at the beginning of the Office of the Dead
