Jim: Sorry, the beginning of my previous message was incidentally
erased. It was supposed to be, "I know next to nothing about English
manuscripts of the 13th century, but at that time exemplars from Paris
were copied in England, and the a-k subdivisions in an English
manuscript could simply indicate the presence of a French exemplar, from
which the subdivisions were copied.
Cheers, again
