Syriac

title: Part of a Chronicle, chiefly ecclesiastical
Foll. 40 and 41 are small fragments, belonging to the older part of the volume, but of which it seems impossible to determine the proper place.
  title: Part of a Chronicle, chiefly ecclesiastical, compiled from the similar works of Eusebius, fol. 1 b, Andronicus, foll. 1 b, 15 a, and others, and continued to A. Gr. 1108, A.D. 797, fol. 36 a.
  title: Later additions that bring the history down to A.Gr. 1122, A.D. 811

Vellum, about 9 1/8 in. by 6, consisting of 41 leaves, many of which are much stained and torn, especially foll. 1—8, 12, 22, 24, 25, 31, 32, and 34—41. The quires, signed with letters, seem to have been 5 in number, but only ܓ is perfect, leaves being wanting at the beginning, and after foll. 7, 13, 23, and 31. There are from 30 to 34 lines in each page. This volume is palimpsest throughout, being made up, to all appearance, of portions of five Greek manuscripts.

This volume is written in a good, regular hand of the earlier part of the xth cent., with the exception of foll. 36 b—39 a, which are in a smaller and more cursive character of about the same date.
