Notes
Script: Written by various similar hands in brown ink in small Southern Gothica Textualis Currens under influence of Cursiva as appears from final s and occasional loops at the ascenders and at d. Marginal notes by contemporary and later hands.
Alternately red and blue paragraph marks and 2- or 3-line flourished initials.
Many irregular edges, incisions, dark surfaces, etc. Due to the bad quality of the parchment and the many abbreviations, the legibility of many pages is scant.
Binding: Disappeared. The two flyleaves in front of the manuscript are taken from an Italian document in Latin; the text is very faded and partly erased. On the second flyleaf recto and verso is written in 13th-century Italian Gothica Cursiva part of the Table of Content of a theological manuscript.
In Latin.
