The quires, four in number, are signed with letters, from ܟܗ to ܟܚ, but there was an older numeration, apparently from ܟܘ to ܟܛ (see fol. 31 a).

- Vellum, about 9 5/8 in. by 6, consisting of 39 leaves, the last of which is soiled and torn. The quires, four in number, are signed with letters, from ܟܗ to ܟܚ, but there was an older numeration, apparently from ܟܘ to ܟܛ (see fol. 31 a). Each page is divided into two columns, of from 33 to 43 lines.

This manuscript is written in a small, neat hand of the viith cent., probably soon after A.D. 641 (see the List of the Emperors of Constantinople, beginning with Constantine the Great, and ending with Constantine the son of Heraclius, A.D. 641).

See additions.

- On fol. 39 a there is a long note, of which, unfortunately, the most important part has been erased, and various words altered. The offender in this case was the abbat Moses of Nisibis (A.D. 932), who states that the book was procured by him, for the convent of S. Mary Deipara, from the monks Mārūthā, Athanasius and Marcus.

- Vellum, about 9 5/8 in. by 6, consisting of 8 leaves (Add. 14,526, foll. 40—47), the first two of which are much stained and torn. Each page is divided into two columns, of from 33 to 38 lines. The contents are identical with a portion of those of the preceding number.

The writing is a fine, regular Estrangělā of the viiith cent.

- Fol. 40 a seems originally to have contained some chronological notes, for we can still read near the top the words ܘܒܫܢܬ ܫܒܥܡܐܐ ܘܚܡܫ, and lower down the words ܡܢ ܥܝܕܬܐ (sic) ܕܐܘܪܗܝ . ܒܪܕܘܦܝܐ . . . ܫܬܡܐܐ ܘܬܡܢܝܢ ܘܬܫܥ . . .

- The entries on fol. 40 a have, however, been erased, and some words in Karshūnī written over them, of which the half has been torn away.
