Script Commentary |
Script is a rapid Irish minuscule with considerable cursive admixture: a has several forms; tall c and e with lower bow reversed frequent; d has two forms; striking is the form of fi ligature resembling an x; i in ligature often resembles an elongated S; the last stroke of m at word-end curves well below the line; z goes below the line and forms an acute angle with the final stroke. |
