This copy bound without pp. 89-134 of the final parts of De Sacramento Poenitentiae comprising the Bulla Coenae Domini and the related appendices on absolution. The absence of the Bulla is consistent across all recorded copies of the edition however the appearance of the appendices varies and one plate is normally found facing p. 135. The Bulla's absence is best explained by the requirement across Catholic Europe that a papal bull needed civil sanction before it carried legal force and the Bulla Coenae Domini was among the most persistently withheld.
