- Vellum, about 12 3/8 in. by 10, of which foll. 1 and 9 are much mutilated. Leaves are wanting at the beginning. Each page is divided into two columns, containing from 28 to 32 lines. These leaves belong to Add. 14,451* [...] , but have been long bound up with this manuscript.

The writing is a fine, regular Estrangela, of the viiith cent.

Later hands have added Syriac vowels and diacritical points abundantly in these leaves.

The larger sections have been noted on the margins in black by a modern hand.

The lessons are rubricated in the text in the usual way, with a solitary exception on the margin of fol. 18 b.

Syriac

title: The four Gospels, according to the Peshitta version
The Ammonian sections and Eusebian canons are marked with red ink in the text this volume, and there is a harmony at the foot of each page. The large red Syriac letters on the margins (e.g. fol. 29 a, ܟܘ; fol. 30b, ܠ; fol. 31b, ܟܙ; fol. 34b, ܨܚ, fol. 37 a, ܣܘ; fol. 48 a, ܚ; fol. 48b, ܝ; fol. 59 a, ܦܒ; etc.) are probably references to an index of lessons, ܦܘܪܫ ܩܪ̈ܝܢܐ once prefixed to the book, but now lost.
  title: S. Matthew
  The only other portion missing is ch. xxvii. 31—xxviii. 5.
  title: S. Mark
  It begins with ch. vi. 2. There is also wanting ch. xiv. 17—36.
  title: S. Luke
  The missing portions are: ch. viii. 35—xi.51, and xxi. 26—xxii. 33.
  title: S. John
  The missing portions are: ch. xviii. 39—xix. 13, and xxi. 17 to the end.

Vellum leaves, about 12 3/8 in. by 10, of which foll. 151 and 152 are much mutilated. The quires, originally 21 in number, are signed with letters (see fol. 23a, ܗ; fol. 44a, ܛ; fol. 69a, ܝܒ; etc.). The more recent numeration is incorrect. Leaves are wanting at the end, as well as after foll. 32, 33, 53, 78, 98 and 147. Each page is divided into two columns, containing from 21 to 26 lines. Foll. 1-22 [...] belong to Add. 14,451* [...] , but have long been bound up with this manuscript. Fol. 58 [...] is a modern addition and palimpsest (see Add. 14,452, fol. 58, lower text [...] ).
