Villanova Digital Library

The Villanova Digital Library has a bunch of Manuscripts online
http://digital.library.villanova.edu/Manuscript%20Collection/
including... wait for it... a 1528 Segovian tax petition, both in illumination and in translation. Note that the first page IS illuminated, even though we all know that in period nobody illuminated court documents. (Note the illuminated initials at various points throughout the document.)
