Frontis: This poem, one of the earliest in circular form, was probably composed by Pierre Ablard (1079 1142). The earlier of two surviving manuscripts, this one dates from the thirteenth century and seems to have been made at the scriptorium of the Cistercian Monastery at Quincy (Cte-d'Or). See page 28.
