| Script Commentary |
Script, by various hands, is 'eN-type' on foll. 2–3, 8–17, 96–103v, the same type bordering on half-uncial on foll. 4–7v, 18–25v, pre-Caroline minuscule on foll. 26–33 recalling MS Boulogne 42 (CLA 5.736), and early Caroline minuscule on foll. 34–87 and 90–93 recalling the script of Paris Lat. 13396 (CLA 5.661): a is the rule and open a the exception. Work on the manuscript was apparently interrupted in the middle of fol. 103; the continuation is by a somewhat later hand of the Maurdramnus variety which also seems to have replaced the bifolium 88/95. |
