Ms. Codex 1128 -[Mystical miscellany] Written in Germany around 1440 CE, this manuscript is a collection of four devotional works with mystical and didactic tendencies: the first is a version of the work on the six names of the Eucharist or body of Christ (Buch von den sechs Namen des Fronleichnams or Liber de corde et sanguine domini) composed by the author known as the Monk of Heilsbronn. The second is a prose tract on the question of how to love God. The third, also in prose, focuses on the Passion of Christ. And the last one is a 12-line prose piece that names obedience, poverty, and chastity as the three virtues essential to a cleric and elevates obedience as the noblest one.Do you want to know more?
