Written apparently in Italy, to judge by the script. Provenance Liège: the Sedulius manuscript to which our leaf was formerly attached contains on fol. 103v the thirteenth century ex-libris 'Liber ecclie lacobi de leodio'.

Script is late uncial with B, M, P, and R rather broad; the right stroke of ꝺ is broken and the upper part resembles the stem of an apple; the second upright of N is more or less comma-shaped; the two strokes of X cross each other high; a straight vertical stroke serves as both the left wing and the descender of Y. Minor corrections ca. saec. IX. Some twelfth century scribbles on both recto and verso.
