Script Commentary |
Script, by several scribes, is a roundish minuscule of the Alemannic type: open a is still more frequent than a; the shaft of h sometimes curves; z is tall and the two horizontals are sometimes cup-shaped; ligatures include nt (even in mid~word) and ti (for hard ti); in the uncial the bow of A is a high flat oval; the foot of L and the cross-stroke of T have forked finials. The 'exegetical fragment' entered on p. 228–230 at the end of the manuscript is merely a repetition of the text contained on p. 8–11. Corrections and transliteration (saec. IX–X) of Greek words are frequent. A few verses from Sedulius' Carmen paschale are entered (saec. X–XI) on p. 1. |
