Date Information
| Date(s): | ?1275 to 1325 |
| Notes: | 'della fine del sec. XIII o del principio del XIV' (Pellegrini 1928, 515; cf. Jung 1996, 328); 'ca. 1300' (Zacour & Hirsch 1965, 58). The lack of round 's' might point to the earlier part of this date range. |

The numerous abbreviations include nasal bars, superscript vowels, p(ro), s(on)t, (us), (con), m(er), and crossed tironian 'et'. |
