Part I (ff. 1r-50v): Written in small, neat Greek minuscule.

Part II (ff. 51r-67r): Written in a rather large Greek minuscule, with a thick pen which ran out of ink every few words; marginal and interlinear notes much smaller, but possibly by same hand. Part III (ff. 67v-80r): Greek minuscule very similar to that in Part I. Part IV (ff. 81r-96v): Same scribe as Part II; signed on f. 96v: George, son of Constantine., Part I: Space for a 5-line initial at the beginning of the Greek text was not filled; 2-line initials in red at beginning of sections; headings in red, also marks in margin for chapters. Part II: Spaces for initials, 7-line or larger, were not filled in, but two initials similar to those in Part IV were sketched in (ff. 51r and 56r). Part III: Spaces for 8-line initials not filled. Part IV: 7-line initials in black and orange-tinted red; stylized leaves and vines, with a bird on f. 83v. Diagrams in red traced over black., and Binding: Nineteenth century.
