Volume / Number: 7 / 946

• Sankt Gallen Switzerland Stiftsbibliothek 722 (p. 1–16, 19–256) [palimpsest new]

Written in the same Rhaetian centre which produced Stuttgart MS HB. VI.113, and probably at Chur, since Bishop Remedius (ca. 800) is mentioned in the Capitula Remedii. The volume has retained its original stamped leather binding. It is listed in the St Gall catalogue of 1461.

Script is Rhaetian minuscule closely akin to the script of Stuttgart MS HB. VI.113 (Canonum collectio Andecavensis): open a is more frequent than a; the shaft of h curves to the right in one hand; ꞇ has the typical Rhaetian form; ligatures include co, fi (in the Italian form), ma and na (with the sickle-shaped form of a joined high to the preceding letter, m ᷤ, p. 27, 170), ti (for hard and soft ti); the cross-stroke of uncial N extends beyond the second upright; part of p. 235 is by an older hand and shows an early stage of the style. A prayer in ninth-century minuscule is seen on p. 16.
