This book is an explanation of the Lord’s prayer from the beginning to the end. It begins with a general introduction followed by the prayer, divided into sections according to its meaning. Folio 4r gives the Lord’s prayer in large characters. The method seems to have been taken from the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius.
