Forms part of the Kenneth Willis Clark Collection of Greek Manuscripts (David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library, Duke University)

Format: Manuscript leaves

Titles from opening rubrics (fol. 1r; fol. 3v).

Layout: Written in 2 columns of 30 lines; 30 lines ruled with a dry point on the hair side. Because the leaves have been trimmed to fit the codex as endleaves, all pricking marks have been cut away.

Script: Written in a regular, open, rounded cursive hand, not very large, with a slightly rightward slant, the scribe mixes uncial and minuscule letters and uses small accents and square breathings and the iota adscript.

Decoration: Decorative penwork between the homilies (red ink for penwork and title). Decorated initial with red and blue colors.

Title cataloged from existing description.

Saint Basil's Homily 19 on the Holy Martyrs and Homily in Lacizis. Two bifolia attached at the spine edge, having served as endsheets in a binding.
