mystery mnemonic hand



Further to the pics of the 16th C Antiphonal that I published a few weeks ago this diagram was salvaged from the ruins of the binding. It is apparently a mnemonic device for use with the choral music that was in the Antiphonal.  If anyone knows how it worked I would love to know.  Until then I all I can do is "talk to The Hand".
