Interesting. Yet it is XIIth century, so if it inspired the VM, then it could have happened in a number of ways : either through another XIIth century era copy, or through a more recent one (i.e. XIVth or XVth century).
It would be of interest to indentify what is depicted here, and what it looks like in other copies of the same text. According to the Notice You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. this volume contains texts by Beda, Germánico, Vindiciano, San Agustín, San Gregorio. The text starts a few pages before this drawing, at f114 You are not allowed to view links.

This might be searchable...[edit: Bede was very famous so this is definitely searchable]
