Quaternions, except III 131-142 (end of text) and II [-1] 207-212, after p. 210 one leaf excised (von Scarpatetti).
Mise en page:
Written area is 220-230 x 165-17 mm, one column, 30 lines per page.
Type d'écritures et copistes: Careful, skilled Caroline minuscule by one scribe, in light of the poem, probably German-speaking. An excellent presentation, a few undecorated initials, titles in rustic capitals. Occasional contemporary corrections on margins; the famous mourning poem of the scribe is found at the end of the text on p. 209 in elongated, ornate capitals in the style of a document hand; this note has never been examined paleographically; the note above it is from the s. XIII, and also by the same hand is the short text on p. 1.
Ajouts: Pen-tests and text fragments, drawings, scribblings and “absurdities” by monastery pupils in at least seven different hands from s. IX–XIII on p. 1, 2, 210 and 211 (von Scarpatetti).
