Ajouts:
In addition to the single leaf lost from what is currently the first quire, in seems as though a full quire (of approx. 6 leaves, enough to hold the first twelve chapters of conf. XVIII) has been lost from the beginning of the MS. It seems as though another full quire was lost after p. 148, creating a large lacuna at the end of conf. XXIII and beginning of XXIV. In addition, single leaves have been lost after pp. 146, 153, and 162, leaving further gaps the text of confs. XXIII and XXIV. A late medieval annotator has made note of these lacunae.
