Rev. 21:19-20), often ascribed to Marbod of Rennes (d. 1123).In Latin.Script: Probably written by one hand in extremely small Southern Gothica Semitextualis Libraria under some Cursiva influence. The script of art. 9 is larger.The ink on the first pages has flaked, making them very difficult to decipher.Red headings, red heightening of majuscules and red plain initials, mostly 2-3 lines; the red initials were to alternate with blue ones but the latter have not been executed. Many initials are anyhow missing. Guide-letters are seen close to the fold or to the edge of the pages. The running titles were also planned to be executed in alternately red and blue majuscules, but the blue letters are missing; there are no running titles after f. 20 (quire II).Binding: Modern limp vellum.
