A manuscript of the 7th century found by Mabillon, at Bobbio, North Italy, now in the Bibliotheque Nationale at Paris (Lat. 13,246). While the manuscript is also called Gallican and attributed to the Province of Besançon, it is now recognized to be Irish in a much Romanized form. The Missal contains a "Missa Romensis cottidiana," other Masses for various days and intentions, the Order of Baptism, and the "Benedictio Cerei."
