Identifier: Adv.MS.84.1.7

Scope and Contents

The text of the fragments is in a 15th-century hand and is arranged in double columns. The rubrics are in red, and the capitals in green and silver, the latter now oxidized.

The work of which the fragments form part of a leaf is not recorded in ‘Patrologia Latina’.

The fragments were recovered from a copy (pressmark K.37.g) of ‘Homeri Ilias’ (Venetiis, 1524), in which they had been used as binding strips.
