a. 1338  f. 185r: Μηνὶ μαρτίῳ ἰν(δικτιῶν)ος ϛʹ, ἡμέρᾳ εʹ, ἔτους ͵ϛωμϛʹ […]. Transcribed in Papadopoulos-Kerameus (1894: 362). In the outer margin of this fleaf, a modern hand has calculated the year: AM 1338 | Paper, 201 ff.  Numbering: 001-199. The first and last leaf are not numbered; the numbering starts in the second leaf from “1”. 191 ff: Papadopoulos-Kerameus, Rahlfs, 280 × 200 mm, ff. 001(a)v-005v: 2; ff. 006r-199v: 1 col., 44 lines per page. |  Minuscule (Later Paleologan hand). | Provenance: Mar Saba Monastery, Palestine.
Greek psalter. | The manuscript, defective at the beginning and end, transmits a Catena to the Psalms, Odes, and other texts. The initial letters of the Psalms and Odes are decorated, and the titles and the verses are rubricated. The abbreviations of the exegetes are indicated on the margins. Starting from f. 158 to f. 1196, there are some conspicuous water stains which in some places compromise the reading of the text. Folios 197 to 199 seem to have been written by another hand; perhaps these leaves were added later. | Text-type: L.
