Script Commentary |
Script is Anglo-Saxon minuscule, not of the more familiar German type but somewhat reminiscent of Northumbria: uncial ꝺ is regular in the text, minuscule d in the rubrics; f is short; g is 3-shaped; the bow of p turns up at the end; ꞅ goes below the line; y leans to the right. |
