Manuscript containing the 'Panormia' of St Ivo of Chartres, divided into eight books.

Dolezalek suggests that the manuscript was produced in England, while Szuromi suggests that it was written in France. Both base their conclusions on the script and style of decoration.

The work has been dated to the 12th century by Borland and Szuromi; to the late 12th century by Brett; and to the early 13th century by Michael Gullick.

The manuscript is written in a protogothic minuscule bookhand, although there are several hands present throughout.

Recorded on the turn-in of the front board is a modern catalogue reference for the volume and a title which reads: 'Ivo de multimodo distinctione.'

The recto side of folio i also has three title inscriptions for the work, two of which have been scored through. The remaining inscription in a 17th-century hand reads: 'Ivonis Episcopi Carnotensis Decreta Seu Panormia'. Also present on this leaf are inscriptions for the old and new shelfmarks, the Denmilne number, and an ex libris inscription. The Denmilne number and one of the scored through inscriptions is partially obscured by a vellum stub.

The contents of the volume are as follows:

Pseudo-Ulpianus, 'De edendo'. Fragment. Folios ir-iiv.

Ivo of Chartres, 'Panormia'. Folios 1r-101r.

Szuromi and Dolezalek have identified texts attributed to Pope Alexander III on the following folios: 40v, 55v-56r, 86r.

Two 'Arbor Consanguinitatis'. The table on folio 86v uses squares and extends to the 6th degree of consanguinity. The tree onfolio 87r uses circles and extends to the 7th degree of consanguinity. Folios 86v-87r.

An appendix, written and decorated in the same way as the main text, containing material from the Second Lateran Council. Folios 101r-104r.

Each folio, recto and verso, has been lined and ruled in red. Pricking is occasionally evident for the horizontal lines.

Initials are coloured green, red, and blue, and are occasionally filled with scroll designs. Incipits and rubrics are in red. Books I-III contain many rubrics but few inscriptions, whilst Book III onwards contains very few rubrics and many abbreviated inscriptions. There are interlineal additions, deletions, and amendments throughout the volume.

The vellum has been enlarged by the addition of vellum fragments to the bottom of the leaves on folios 1, 4, 5, 8, 14, and 15.

There are a few contemporary repairs to the vellum, but these are infrequent.
