Later at Saint-Germain-des-Prés, where it was numbered '479, olim 93' (fol. 1). |

| Script Commentary |
Script is the distinct type of early Caroline minuscule known as Maurdramnus and described previously (see CLA 5.613): a has two forms in the Martyrology, elsewhere the uncial form is the rule; z is elongated and stands on the line; G with the tail inclined to the left occurs in uncial headings (e.g. fol. 12). |
