Origin and Provenance |
Written doubtless in an Anglo-Saxon centre on the Continent, presumably in the Würzburg region, to judge from its palaeographical kinship to M. p. th. f. 17 (CLA 9.1405). Belonged to the Würzburg Cathedral Library: the characteristic shelf-marks ‘CXXII' and '102' are seen on fol. 1. |

Script Commentary |
Script is partly Anglo-Saxon minuscule of South English type, partly compressed majuscule, both recalling the scripts of M. p. th. f. 17 (CLA 9.1405), and often a mixture of the two: a form of T with stem going far below the line is seen at end of words here and there but mostly in one minuscule hand (foll. 40 ff.); the script on fol. 37r–v and part of fol. 38 is erased. An extensive correction on fol. 53 and the added 'Missa speciosa' on foll. 70v and 71 are both in Caroline minuscule saec. IX ex. Small fragments in Anglo-Saxon minuscule saec. IX are found in the binding. |
