Physical description
| General illustration: | ff. 62v and 63r have less text than most pages, and space was probably left here for illustrations. The same goes for ff. 161r, 161v, 162r, and possibly ff. 113v and 114v (which are entirely blank). See Jung 1996, 88. |
| General decoration: | Space was left for initials (height: 2 or 3 lines), but these were never added, with the exception of the one on f. 172va, which marks v. 24397. Guide letters are, however, present. |
| Evidence of readership: | The crude drawings, mostly in the lower margins, are probably the work of Lucas the scribe, but bear no relationship to the text. f. 1r: ex libris of 'Giovanni figliolo di Franciescho' (Jung 1996, 86). ff. 150v and 151r: the names of 'herri disofunberc' and 'Nicolai di calvenzan' (Jung 1996, 89). |
| Foliations description: | Stamped 1-56 and 58-218 (there is no 57). |
