Miscellaneous. | It is a miscellaneous manuscript composed of six parts written by different hands of the 13th and 14th centuries. The manuscript is in a poor state of preservation. There are signs of insects, and water infiltrations have damaged some folios. Part of the text is no longer visible (i. e. ff. 211r-233r); in other folios, the ink, which was washed off by water, has been rewritten by a later hand (ff. 159r-210v). The leaves from 153 to 158 are defective in their lower part. Ff. 153-158 wrongly bound. Ff. 004r-153v: The verses of the Psalms are in red while the Metaphrasis, interlinear, is written in dark black ink. From f. 133 to 154r, the verses of the Psalms are no longer legible, especially in the final part of the folios. | Text-type: L.
