The text reaches from the second Sunday after Easter, through the Ascension, Pentecost, to the sixteenth week after Pentecost. The Menology (folios 114 v – 160) has almost no lessons given at length, but overflows with rubrical directions.[https://archive.org/stream/adversariacritic00scri#page/n99/mode/2up Adversaria Critica Sacra: With a Short Explanatory Introduction] (Cambridge, 1893), p.
