Written apparently in the same North Italian or Swiss centre that produced Paris Lat. 653 (CLA 5.527) and Wolfenbüttel, Helmst. 513. The manuscript belonged to the Prince of Soubise and had the number 555 at its sale in 1789 when the Bibliothèque Nationale acquired it. It entered the Bibliothèque Nationale as Suppl. Lat. 688 (see fly-leaf). |

| Script Commentary |
Script: minuscule is seen only on foll. 2–21v with open a and a, flat-topped Ᵹ, and a curious form of r with the shoulder often extending over the next letter, chiefly over i and o, which are then rather small; uncial B, ꝺ, G, L, M, N, R, T occur among the minuscule; in the main uncial part uncial E has a closed loop; the bows of uncial M are often closed; the half-uncial form of Ᵹ occurs. |
