Psalms and Odes with marginal scholia.
| This is a luxurious manuscript decorated with gilded letters and a colourful floral headpiece. The text of the Psalms and the Odes is surrounded by marginal scholia consisting of excerpts from church fathers, hexaplaric readings, and corrections to the text. Prognostic sentences have been also added in the upper margin of several folios. Montfaucon and Field used this manuscript for their edition of Origen’s hexaplaric fragments of the Book of Psalms.
