[N.B., folio location may not be available for some items below.] [N.B., items below may have been listed out of folio order in Wright's catalogue.]

- There are a very few marginal notes in Arabic; e.g. fol.12a, ܐܩܠܘܒܝܐ, marg. ; fol.44b, ܡܪܝܐ ܨܒܐܘܬ, marg. .

- On fol.18a, at the foot of the page, the Syriac word ܨܗܠܐ is represented in Greek letters by cεγλω.

- On fol. 1a there is a note stating that this book belonged to the brothers Matthew, Abraham and Theodore of Tagrīt:

ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܟܬܒܐ ܗ[ܢܐ] ܕܡܬܝ ܘܐܒܪܗܡ ܘܬܐܕܪܘܣ ܐܚ̈ܐ ܬ݁ܓܪ̈ܝܢܬܢܝܐ ܕܙܒܢܘܗܝ ܡܢ ܡܕܡ ܕܙܢܬ ܐܢܘܢ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ. ܟܠ ܕܝܢ ܕܠܚܐ ܠܥܘܗܕܢܗܘܢ ܡܢ ܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ. ܢܬܠܚܐ ܫܡܗ ܡܢ ܣܦܪܐ ܕܚܝ̈ ܘܢ̈ܬܝܢ (sic) ܥܠܘ[ܗܝ] ܠܘ̈ܛܬܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܟ̈ܬܝܒܢ ܒܬܢܝܢ ܢܡܘܣܐ. ܘ. . .

- Above this is written in cursive Greek characters the single word ερεμιασ.

- Of the lessons, some are rubricated in the text, whilst others have been noted on the margins by different hands.

- Greek vowels have been not unfrequently added by a later hand (ܰ, ܶ, ܺ, ܳ, ; , , , ܡܢ ܩܘܪ̈ܝܗܘܢ, but also and ; , e.g. ܙܰܘܽܬܪ̈ܐ); the points rukkākh and kushshāi very rarely (e.g. fol.98a).

- The same reader who added the vowels has divided the Prophecies into 33 sections (fol.102b, ܨܠܓ).

- On the recto are two notes, the one stating that a certain book belonged to the convent of S. Mary Deipara, the other that it was brought thither by the abbat Moses of Nisibis. The, latter, so far as it is legible, runs as follows:

ܫܡܝܐ ܘܐܪܥܐ ܘܟܠ ܕܒܗܘܢ ܢܬ݂ܠܘܢ ܘ̇ܝܐ ܠܡ̇ܢ ܕܐܡ̣ܪܚ ܘܫ̣ܛ ܠܡܠܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܘܟܝܬ ܕܟܗܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܡܪܝ ܡܘܫܐ ܪܝܫܕܝܪܐ ܏ܩܕܝ ܕܕܝܪܐ ܗܕܐ ܕܒܝܬ ܝ̇ܠܕܬ ܐܠܗܐ ܕܒܡܕܒܪܐ ܕܣܘܪ̈ܝܝܐ. ܗܢܐ . . . ܘܐܬܛ̇ܪܦ ܫܬ ܫܢܝ̈ܐ ܡܢ ܒܓܕܕ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܡܨܪܝܢ ܘܐܝܼܬܝ ܟܬܒ̈ܐ . . . ܟܐܒܐ ܕܠܒܗ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ܆ ܟܬ̣ܒ ܦܣܩܐ ܗܢܐ ܏ܘܫ

- On the verso there is another note, in an old hand, now much mutilated, apparently recording that the book was presented by the monk Ephraim, of Marak(A village between Mosul and Nisibis), to the convent of S. Mary Deipara.
