This is John the Evangelist, identifiable by the eagle next to him (the four gospel writers all have symbols: Matthew has an angel, Mark a lion, and Luke an ox). Books of Hours always started with gospel readings and illustrated ones include scribal portraits of the evangelists at the beginning of each reading. If you can make out the gothic script at the bottom (admittedly kind of hard if you're not used to it) the text in red introduces the Gospel of John and the text in black is the opening lines: "In principio erat verbum" (In the beginning was the Word).

thank thee, friend!

twintailedsiren

Decorated initial D with interlace and a mermaid, from Psalm 14 (folio 13v) 8th century. The Psalter of Charlemagne (shelfmark BN lat. 13159) She pulls her hair, and has a very long body that ends in two tails.

I found her when I was looking for the book La sirène dans la pensée et dans l'art de l'Antiquité et du Moyen Âge by Jacqueline Leclercq-Marx, which I’m still looking for. She’s interesting, as she’s a very early mermaid in a religious manuscript. Another early example of a two-tailed mermaid in a religious manuscript is from the Book of Kells:

i wrote about two-tailed sirens in Christian medieval manuscripts here, in Hebrew manuscripts here, and about mermaid and siren imagery in early medieval texts here.
