Alternately red and blue paragraph marks. Alternately red and blue 2- or 3-line (sometimes 4- or 5-line) flourished initials, half inset, with penwork in the opposite colours extending in the left margin or in the intercolumnar space. On f. 1r at the beginning of the text a 9-line littera duplex with penwork, badly rubbed. Guide letters.
The leaves are badly soiled and rubbed, making reading often difficult or impossible (especially f. 1, which is waterstained and misses the lower corner).
