(170-175 x 100-105 mm.) in 18 long lines. Ruling before folding, on the flesh side, 2 or 4 bifolia at a time. Double bounding lines in both margins. Prickings in the outer margin guided the ruling.
Type d'écritures et copistes:
Punctuation: the main pause marked by a medial point or ., or semicolon, lesser pauses by a medial point; many points added. Accents occur over monosyllables.
Abbreviations include the normal forms of Nomina Sacra and b;, q: = bus, que; fr̄s = fratres; e̅ = est; , ꝳ and ꝴ (with the cross-stroke looped) = men, mus and nus; n̅ = non; n̅r̅, n̅ = noster, -um; op̅s = omnipotens; ꝑ, p·, = per, post, prae; ꞅɫ, r̅ = rum, runt; sic̄ = sicut; ꞇ̄, ꞇ̓ = ter, tur; , u̅ = uel, uer.
Syllabification: resurre-xit. The m-stroke is a vertical flourish. Spelling shows confusion of ci and ti.
Script is a roundish, typical Rhaetian minuscule resembling Beneventan and Visigothic in its forms of a and t; the uncial form of a is also used; g is longish, the top forms a closed loop to the left; z has a striking form going far below the line; Ɛ is used for hard ti; the form of uncial N is noteworthy.
Ink brown or black.
Décoration:
Headings in uncial mixed with minuscule in red and sometimes in greenish-gold (bronze), partly with a brownish wash.
Initials, characteristically slender, are of the type found in St. Gall MS. 348 (our No. 936), but by a less skilful artist; they show red, green, yellow, violet, and greenish-gold (bronze), some being surrounded oy red dots.
Origine du manuscrit:
Written in the Rhaetian scriptorium that produced the famous Gelasian Sacramentary, St. Gall MS. 348 (our No. 936), most probably Chur.
