This scribe has avoided the problem of lines of text too long to fit on one line by adopting an aspect ratio that leaves ample room for the width of most lines. When the line would have been too long, the scribe finishes the end of the line with words written smaller so as to avoid leftover text (e.g., folss. 16v, 17r, 29r, 30r, 42r, , etc.). Also, the scribe may complete the line above the end of the line (e.g., 2v, 6v, 10r, 19r, 19v, 20v, 27v , etc.).
Decoration In this unit there are in total 8 s, 1 .
