Manuscript CB 88, which combines the Odes, the Epodes, and the
Carmen saeculare, a piece interpreted by children's choirs of the
Roman nobility during secular performances, is an unusual example
of a Horace manuscript from the turn of the 10th to the 11th
century. Its many marginal and interlinear glosses, which
frequently consist of scholii by Pseudo-Acro, explain the verses
and praise their metrical accuracy and verbal virtuosity. The
alphabetical tables and the title were added in the 14th century at
the end of the volume.
