Manuscript Features

The manuscript is severely damaged. About half of the folios are broken in the right margin with small loss of text, about 20% with loss of up to half of the text. Folios are in disorder.

In places a second hand added comments (glosses) and indicated word divisions with small strokes or (in case of compounds) dots . Those are not found on all folios. The example below has been taken from a folio with comparatively many additions.
