| Script Commentary |
Script is an early and not very expert minuscule with some cursive elements: open a and a; here and there high-backed c and flat-topped Ᵹ; y is v-shaped and dotted, z has a semi-circular first and last stroke. In the uncial headings N and R have the oblique stroke almost horizontal. A later hand, saec. X–XI, added on the lower half of foll. 5v and 6r 'Breviculus contra duciaticum' (imprecations against the devil). |
