Psalms and Odes. | The manuscript is defective at the beginning and starts with Ps 7. Two parts are kept in St. Petersburg under the shelfmarks Petropolitanus gr. 77 and 92. The titles and initial letters are rubricated in red. There are some glosses in Greek (e.g. f. 189v) and in Arabic (e.g. f. 220v). The manuscript was damaged, esp. at the margins, therefore, several restorations were made by using parchment fragments, mostly palimpsests, coming from different codices written in majuscule (i.e. f. 73r) or in minuscule.Text-type: L.
