F. 10 saec. XV containing philosophical matter relating to the University of Paris and owned by the Wrocław Dominican convent. |

Script Commentary |
Script is expert uncial of an old type, in various sizes: the second stroke of ꝺ begins well above the head-line; the shaft of h is high; Y descends below the line and its branches rise above the head-line; Z sweeps below the base-line. Small minuscule corrections saec. VIII seem Insular and probably Irish. |
