Decoration:One large arabesque initial in red, green and light brown (f. 68r). Two large initials in light brown or green with penwork decoration in alternate colours and with some red (f. 1r). Two large initials in red or in light brown with minor penwork decoration in the same colour and one with a reserved line (ff. 31v, 43v). Simple initials in red, blue, green or light brown.
