Scribe description: | Northern textualis rotundus with double-compartment 'a' of which the upper lobe is not closed. 'e' with tongue. Distinctive and long diacritics on 'i'. Both straight and round 's' in final position. Use of 'v' in initial position. 't' with elongated horizontal stroke at the end of the line. Abbreviations include 's'-like apostrophe, -us and -com abbreviations, 'p' with crossed descender, superscript vowels. These features point towards the second half of the thirteenth century. The fact that the text has been copied above top line is peculiar. |
