Bible with a missal copied straight on after Psalms, thus placing it in the center of the book; books of the bible generally in the usual order (see Ker, MMBL 1:96-97), but with the prayer of Manasses after 2 Paralipomenon, the prayer of Solomon after Ecclesiasticus, Baruch (its "epistola" before the text) on an inserted bifolium, and Acts after the Gospels; there are 38 prologues (24 in the...

Seven historiated initials, 13- to 9-line: f. 22 (prologue), Jerome writing, against a gold...
Considerable contemporary and later marginalia for liturgical and study purposes, including: on f. 159, upper margin, "Rubee figure distingunt libros moralium" referring to arabic numerals in red ink, 1-35, added in the margins of Job, ff. 159-165v, to tie to the books in the Moralia of Gregory the Great; in Proverbs, ff. 192-197, Grosseteste indexing symbols in brown ink in the margins...
