Description
The manuscript consists of two codices bound together (part 1: pp.
1-198; part 2: pp. 199-210), written by several hands. At least the
first, older part was probably produced in St. Gall. It contains
various various glossaries (Latin-Latin as well as Latin-Old High
German) of the Bible, of hagiographic texts (Abdias, Historica
Apostolica; Sulpicius Severus, Vita S. Martini), grammatical works
(Priscian, Institutio de arte grammatica; Donat, Ars grammatica),
and writings by Christian authors (Prudentius; Sedulius; Sedulius
Scottus, De greca), furthermore glossaries of herbs, a medical
paper, and an incomplete astronomical treatise.
