| Comments |
Written in North Italy in an Insular centre. The whole MS. was inserted in its present place among the Vaticani by Cardinal Mai to replace a printed book. The Laurentian MS. has on a paper fly-leaf the arms of 'Le Comte D. Boutourlin' and later belonged to Lord Ashburnham.
Script is a debased Irish minuscule, crowded and ungainly, apparently under continental influence, but some contemporary marginalia are in pure Insular. |
