Script Commentary	Script is an elegant, slim Anglo-Saxon minuscule recalling the type used in South England: a has the normal minuscule form or is open (the abbreviation-stroke often joins this open form so closely that they form a single character); Ᵹ is flat-topped and pointed in the middle; subscript i occurs; characteristic are r and ꞅ going far below the line. The content of the riddles is indicated interlinearly in small characters. Contemporary corrections in Anglo-Saxon minuscule. Some glosses traced with a stylus, now hardly legible (p. 127, col. 2, ll. 2–4).
