The manuscript contains 190 parchment folio with the text of the four Gospels with lacunae (Matt 1:1-11:16; Luke 9:48; 10:20.21; 11:45-12:6.7; John 17:15-18:9; 20:22-21:8).[1] Written in a beautiful round uncial hand.[2]
Gospels follow in the sequence: Matthew, Luke, John, Mark.[1]
The Latin text of the codex is a representative Western text-type in itala recension.[3] The text is akin to preserved in Codex Vercellensis and Codex Veronensis.[4]
The manuscript formerly belonged to the monastic Library of Corbie Abbey, on the Somme, near Amiens; and with the most important part of that Library was transferred to St. Germain des Prés at Paris, about the year 1638, and was there numbered 195.[2] It was quoted by Sabatier, Bianchini gave a collation in Mark, Luke, and John.
