2-right justified texts in red here You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view..
And on the next folio, 2 centred texts and 2 grove titles also in red ink. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.
Thats UPenn Schoenberg LJS 62.
the notes say "headings, captions, small initials, and large initials (sometimes with flourishes and extensions)"
Don't know quite what headings and captions refers to in a Medieval mss or why there are 3 types.
If someone could explain more that would be great.

According to Helmut's definition, these red lines likely refer to the paragraphs below, as real "titles" (which typically come before the content).
In VMS You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. it seems that the shorter lines belong to the preceding paragraph: the first two are closer to the paragraph above than to that below, and the last one obviously is not followed by a paragraph.
The one in the middle could also be a "caption" for the red plant, since the other rare trait of this page is that it includes two different plants.
So, while the Greek parallel is interesting, the VMS appears to be different. But as always looking for parallels is a good idea and could suggest possible interpretations...
