| Origin and Provenance |
Written at Lorsch. The manuscript was on loan in Fulda in the late tenth or the early eleventh century; when it was returned, the Lorsch ex-libris in the form of a distich (Reddere NAZARIO me lector kare memento / Alterius domini ius quia nolo pati, fol. 145v) received a counterpart in a distich of the Fulda monks (Reddunt ecce boni me SALVATORIS alumni / Hinc illis grates NAZARIUS referes, ibid.). Later at Heidelberg, whence it was removed to the Vatican in 1623. |

| Script Commentary |
Written mainly by two scribes: script of the first hand is typical early Lorsch minuscule; script of the second hand (foll. 73–145) is more stately. The second scribe noted in the upper right-hand corner the day in which he began each quire; these dates are preserved on foll. 113, 121, 129, 137; they seem to show an average daily rate of about two and a half pages. The long subscription of the second scribe on fol. 145 is unfortunately beyond recovery. Corrected in the ninth century. Various Lorsch ex-libris saec. X and XVI on foll. 1 and 145v, and 1v. |
