Tipo di scrittura e mani:
  • Alemannic and anglo-saxon minuscule.
  • Punctuation: various pauses marked by a medial point or comma in the Insular parts only. Omissions are marked by signes de renvoi and often supplied on inserted slips. Citations marked by a comma or by one or two flourishes to the left of each line.
  • Abbreviations hardly differ in the Continental and Insular parts; they include b;,q; = bus, que; auꞇ and au = autem; ƀ = ber and bis; ee, ē = esse, est; m, m' and ꝳ (also with looped cross-stroke) = men, mus; n̄ = non; nr, nr̄m = noster, nostrum; om = omnes; ꝑ, p, ꝓ, pp = per, prae, pro, propter; qđ (and quđ), quō = quod, quoniam; rt, r̄ = rum, runt; ꞇ̄, ꞇ͗ = ter, tur.
  • Ink dark brown.
  • Script or the main part, by several scribes, is the broad roundish minuscule of the Alemannic type: two forms of a are used, the open prevailing; z is strikingly tall; the nt-ligature occurs often in mid-word; an Anglo-Saxon scribe showing the effect of long residence on the Continent wrote side by side with his Alemannic confrères, starting in the middle of a sentence (see pp. 244-305, 345-396).
Notazione musicale: Neums, saec. X, on pp. 3, 399.
Decorazione:
  • Colophons and headings in hlack simple or hollow fancy capitals or in red or black uncial.
  • Simple uncoloured initials show the fish and leaf motifs in the early St. Gall style; the larger initial C on p. 296 is in diluted Insular style (see plate).
Aggiunte: Corrections by contemporary and later hands; probationes pennae saec. VIII-IX occur on pp. 3-7, 397-399, originally left blank. An Old High German gloss stalo over armariolum on p. 279.
Origine del manoscritto: Written no doubt at St. Gall, to judge by the script and initials. The presence there of an Anglo-Saxon scribe, or one familiar with Anglo-Saxon script, is noteworthy.
