Extras
-
Fol. 62v A black line surrounding a line of text marks the midpoint of the Psalms. The line appears to have been added later
-
Overlooked words of text are written interlinearly (folss. 2v, 8r, 12r, 13r, 21v, 41v, , etc.); and overlooked lines of text are written interlinearly (98r, 103r, 136r, 155r )
-
The scribe regularly has to complete a line of text on another line. Much of the problem is addressed through the selection of an appropriate aspect ratio for the codex combined with an appropriate script size. But, where the line of text is still too long, the scribe completes the line of text above the end of the line (throughout). This scribe will also reduce the font size at the end of lines to avoid having to go onto the next line (e.g., fols. 8v, 9v, 10v, 14v, 15v , etc.)
-
The general condition of the vellum is a bit dirty and stained but relatively unworn. Many folios are water stained around the perimeter and the text is smudged
Decoration In this unit there are in total 7 s, 1 .
