• St Petersburg Russia Russian National Library Lat. F. v. I. 3 (foll. 39–108)

Written probably in Northumbria, possibly by Northumbrian scribes in a Continental centre, and in the same scriptorium that produced the glossed manuscript of Job with which it is bound. For later history see preceding item.

Script, by several hands, is Anglo-Saxon minuscule, in part pointed and probably Northumbrian: d is normally open; in the stiff and angular script on foll. 63 ff. r is short and u often cup-shaped and suprascript; ligatures include di, li, lis, ti. The biblical lemmata are partly in larger minuscule or in compressed majuscule with a tendency to diminish gradually in size [i.e. dimenuendo].
