The Chartres 620 MS was unfortunately lost in WWII. It was partially photographed prior to this distruction, but primarily the second half. This is noteworthy, because the text existed in two parts: folios 19-26 in prose, through to the opening of ''Tentamina'', and then folios 27-44 in rhymed verse. Only one image of the first (prose) half of the text (folio 26) survives.
According to Speer (1981) and Speer and Foehr-Janssens (2017), despite the fact that the two halves of the text are copied in different hands and styles, there is sufficient fluidity between them to consider them an intentional continuation and whole, rather than discrete fragments.

The Chartres 620 MS was unfortunately lost in WWII. It was partially photographed prior to this distruction, but primarily the second half. This is noteworthy, because the text existed in two parts: folios 19-26 in prose, through to the opening of Tentamina, and then folios 27-44 in rhymed verse. Only one image of the first (prose) half of the text (folio 26) survives.

According to Speer (1981) and Speer and Foehr-Janssens (2017), despite the fact that the two halves of the text are copied in different hands and styles, there is sufficient fluidity between them to consider them an intentional continuation and whole, rather than discrete fragments.
