Bindings
Description: | An erased note in the lower margin of f. 47v suggests that the copyist responsible for Part 2 also compiled the manuscript. In this case, the three parts of the volume would have been bound together since the early 14th c. (Zanni 2008, 49). The current binding is in parchment and was restored in 1828 (according to the front pastedown). |
