Origin and Provenance |
Written doubtless at Corbie. The thirteenth-century Corbie ex-libris stands on fol. 2: 'liber Sci peꞇ corbeie'. With other Corbie manuscripts it migrated to Saint-Germain-des-Prés in the seventeenth century where it had the number '216, olim 129' (see fol. 1). At the foot of fol. 1v stands the seventeenth-century entry 'Corbeiensis abbatiae in picardia'. Came into the Bibliothèque Nationale during the Revolution. |

Script Commentary |
Script is a fine example of the typical a-b script described under CLA 5.554; small uncial A (probably suggested by the Caroline a) is used to save space at line-ends. The spiral form of uncial ꝺ, G with the tail curving to the right and H with the gabled cross-stroke occur at beginning of sentences. |
