The title above is on the recto of the first 

 leaf, verso blank. The text begins on the recto

 French translation opposite, then the Ave, Cre- 

 do, Commandments, Prayer to the angels, to 

 patrons, the Benedicite and the Graces ; then 

 the Sancta Maria. Two blank pages follow; 

 then the small catechism, in Algonkin and

 of faith; the existence of God, the mysteries 

 of the Sacred Trinity, of the Incarnation and 

 of the Kedemption, hope, the commandments 

 of God, the sacraments, baptism, penitence or
