The calendar, litanies and liturgical texts

 

The calendar, litanies and liturgical texts in the Burnet Psalter are described and identified by James (see The Contents and their Arrangement). They correspond in form to those generally found in fifteenth-century psalters and books of hours, although the Hours of the Compassion of the Virgin, the Hours in commemoration of the Guardian Angel and the Devotions in honour of the passion of Jesus Christ are less common.
