Extras
-
Fol. 64r The scribe possibly indicates the midpoint of the Psalms with a slight indent in the placement of the left margin for the midpoint line of text. All other lines are carefully placed on the left justified margin
-
Overlooked words of text are written interlinearly (fols. 24v, 126r , )
-
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 or below 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. 10v, 26r, 33v, 35r, 35v, 36v , etc.)
-
Fols. 155r, 155v blank
