Hand a: mediocre but careful; hand b: mediocre
Ink: Black, red (strong scarlet on check the viewer2r-32r ; red on check the viewer33r-48v ; strong red in check the viewer49r-64v )
Rubrication: Nomina sacra; names of the categories of melody and their abbreviations (ʿǝzl, gǝʿǝz, ʾararay); elements of the punctuation signs; Ethiopic numerals and/or their elements. Text 1 A few lines on the incipit page; names of antiphons (mawāśǝʾt) followed by feast names and initial text lines; the number of the psalm and its initial words; names of sections of antiphons and their abbreviations (mǝlṭān and mazmur). Text II A few lines on the incipit page; names of sections (zǝmmāre) preceded or followed by feast or day names and, sometimes, initial text lines; names of subsections and their abbreviations (e.g., Manfas, ṣǝwwaʿ) occasionally followed by feast names; musical notation signs: interlinear (e.g., fols. 39vc, 41rabc, 42vab, 46vb, 52vb, 53vc, 54ra, 54vab, 55rab, 56rc, 56va) and elements of marginal. The rubrication in red is executed very carelessly with big letters not fitting into the blank spaces left for them (s. e.g., fol. 33r), most probably in a secondary hand.
