The border was altered by an addition of royal coats of arms and an inscription, and adapted to frame a miniature of the prince praying before Christ from the Psalter of Henry VI (Cotton MS Domitian A XVII, f. 98r). This miniature was restored to the original manuscript by Sir Frederic Madden (d. 1873), Keeper of manuscripts at the British Museum.
