Script Commentary

Script of the main hand is early Caroline minuscule, akin to the hand of CLM 14457 (CLA 9.1299), while that of the other hands can only be described as pre-Caroline, and even the main scribe lapses into the ruder type (fol. 100v). An Insular hand added various critical signs passim in the margins, as l for 'lege', quotation-marks, and entire words (foll. 73v, 85v): it is the hand of the scribe of CLM 14666 (saec. IX).
