2 For these series, graciously communicated to me by courtesy of Knud Ottosen,
leeturer at the University of Århus, Denmark, see AN 152-53. The importance of the
responses of the Office of the Dead as a means of identifying liturgical manuscripts was
discovered by the late G. M. Beyssac and V. Leroquais, who both, through a life-time,
collected these series. Their note-books have been augmented by M. Huglo, and, in
particular as regards the Scandinavian series, by K. Ottosen. Their collected series of
responses are being treated by computer and classified by K. Ottosen in preparation for
a future edition.
