Script Commentary

Script, by several hands, is pointed Anglo-Saxon minuscule mostly with long descenders; y has both branches leaning to the right. The name 'sahsrih' is scratched in on fol. 22v. A curious fragmentary diagram representing apparently a military camp (on fol. 42v) may have been intended for some play.
