Physical Description

Vellum, about 10 in. by 6 3/4, consisting of 42 leaves, many of which are much stained and torn, especially foll. 12, 13, 15, 16, 18, 20, 21, and 33—37. The quires seem originally to have been 17 in number, and to have been signed with both letters and arithmetical figures (see fol. 38 a, apparently �). At present, many are lost, and scarcely one of those that remain is complete. Each page is divided into three columns, of from 36 to 42 lines.

The original description of this manuscript by William Wright includes characters, symbols, or illustrations which cannot be represented. Please consult the attached image, vol. 2, p. 483.

Additions

Addition 1 (Fol. 42b): From the first few lines of the colophon, fol. 42b, col. b, we learn that the name of the scribe was Theodore. ܒܡܪܢ ܣܒܪܢ ܟܠ ܕܩ̇ܪܐ ܢܨܠܐ ܥܠ ܚܛܝܐ ܬܐܕܘܪܐ ܕܟܬܒ. ܕܐܠܗܐ ܢܥܕܪܗ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܕܢܚܝܢ ܪ̈ܚܡܘܗܝ ܒܫܘܒܚܗ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܐܡܝܢ . ܘ . The remainder has been erased, and the note that was written over it has suffered the same fate.
Addition 2 (Fol. 42b): In col. c, at the top, there is a note of not much later date, stating that the manuscript belonged to the priest John of ܒܝܬ ܡܥܝܪ . ܗܢܐ ܟܬܒܐ ܕܝܠܝ ܩܫܝܫܐ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܕܒܝܬ ܡܥܝܪ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܐܠܐ ܟܠ ܕܩܪܐ ܒܗ ܐܘ ܟܬܒ ܡܢܗ ܘܟܐܡ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܢܗܘܐ ܡܚܝܒ ܠܕܝܢܐ ܕܩ̈ܛܘܠܘܗܝ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܥܠ ܟܠ ܗܢܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܢ ܒܡܠܟܗ ܕܩܢܘܡܝ ܠܐ ܡܬܝܗܒ ܠܗ ܕܢܩܪܐ ܒܗ ܐܘ ܕܢܟܬܘܒ ܡܢܗ ــ
Addition 3 (Fol. 43a): Another note, on fol. 43, informs us that the priest Sergūnā of Harrān, a recluse in the convent of Euphrasius, purchased this volume, in conjunction with one Elias bar Simeon of ܒܝܬ ܦܪܦܝܣܛܐ . ܕܝܠܝ ܩܫܝܫܐ ܣܪܓܘܢܐ ܡܢ ܚܪܢ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܚܒܝܫܐ ܒܥܘܡܪܐ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܐܘܦܪܣ ܟܠ ܕܫܩܠ ܠܗ ܕܢܩܪܐ ܒܗ ܐܘ ܕܢܟܬܘܒ ܡܢܗ ܒܚܕ ܡܢ ܦܘܪ̈ܣܝܢ ܘܟܐܡ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܡܚܝܒ ܗܘ ܠܕܝܢܐ ܟܐܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܒܗܢܐ ܥܠܡܐ ܘܒܥܠܡܐ ܕܥܬܝܕ ܐܡܝܢ ــܲـ . ܐܫܬܘܬܦ ܕܝܢ ܒܙܒܢܬܗ ܕܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܐܠܝܐ ܒܪܗ ܕܢܝܚ ܢܦܫܐ ܫܡܫܐ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܒܝܬ ܦܪܦܝܣܛܐ ܡܢ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܡܢ ܥܡܠܐ ܕܐܝ̈ܕܘܗܝ ܡܛܠ ܝܘܬܪܢܐ ܕܝܠܗ ܘܡܛܠ ܫܘܒܩܢܐ ܕܚܛܗ̈ܘܗܝ ܏ܘܫ.
