| Script Commentary |
Script is by several hands, one writing a clumsy Anglo-Saxon majuscule probably identical with the main hand of M. p. th. f. 78 (CLA 9.1425) (d and n are minuscule, R and S majuscule), another writing pointed Anglo-Saxon minuscule with the short horizontals of Ᵹ and ꞇ going up to the right, and still another writing ungainly Anglo-Saxon minuscule recalling one of the hands of M. p. th. f. 17 (CLA 9.1405). The name 'Guntza' {?) in a contemporary addition on fol. 57v. |
