- Description by Martha Thompson (2016):Codicology:A single leaf of parchment, cut into two pieces. Edges have been trimmed, and leaf shows discoloration from previous use as a pastedown in a later binding. Other physical damage includes creasing in the lower half of leaf, with small holes (approx. 1-2mm) at lowest crease (below the cut). Cut and creases likely appear where leaf was bent around a spine in binding use.1 column, 26 lines with glosses in bottom, left, and right margins; no pricking visible.Leadpoint ruling visible for main text block and margins; text below top line.Paleography:Main text written by one hand in a small, gothic script (France?), single column with wide margins to allow glossing. Marginal text, likely a second hand, is tiny, cursive, and more highly abbreviated.

Double-line guide marks in black ink visible beneath paraphs.
