Origin and Provenance

Written apparently in France and probably in the South, to judge by peculiarities of script and perhaps also spelling. Belonged to the Jesuit Collège de Clermont, whence it entered the Meerman collection in 1764 and that of Sir Thomas Phillipps in 1824. Acquired by the Berlin Royal Library in 1887.

Script Commentary

Script is a small, rather irregularly written minuscule: a has two forms; uncial 𐌾 occurs; i-longa is frequent; the top of does not always extend beyond the vertical; ligatures include NT and nT, ri (curiously shaped), and ti ligature for hard ti; N, in the display uncial, resembles H.
