| Script Commentary |
Script is a late ungainly Irish majuscule with some minuscule elements: d, n, r occur regularly; the majuscule and minuscule forms of s are used indifferently; ligatures with e are frequent, including eg, em, er, es, eu. Some slight corrections. The verso was used to practice writing some large letters (probably saec. XII). |
