Dionysius Exiguus’ Paschal table, covering the 95 years AD 532‑626, was composed in AD 525, Beda Venerabilis’ Easter table, covering the 532 years AD 532‑1063, was composed in AD 725. In fact, the latter is an extension of the former. In the book in question (ISBN) the former covers the 3 pages 103‑105, the latter covers the 15 pages 106‑120.
