Psychomachia (Conflict of the Soul) by Prudentius, which describes the battles between female personifications of human virtues and vices.
From manuscript: Leyden, Universitatsbibliothek, Cod. Burmanni Q 3
9th century, probably from Northern France.
I have included an English translation of the poem for the 'Chastity against Lust' section.

An example of a coloured page:
Prudentius: Peace drives away Fear, Labor and Want / Trumpets are silent, swords sheathed / The legion of Virtues enjoy winning the contest / Concord orders the withdrawal of the standards to camp / Singing troop of cavalry & infantry
