Description:
|
Book three: Chapter 67; Chapter 68. Chapter sixty eight begins with the title in green capitals (If Impossible Things Are Enjoined on a Brother). The text ends imperfectly; the last passage of text quoted is from chapter sixty eight 'vel contradicendo', with the last words on the page being 'omne quod tibi in...'. The text is written in a Visigothic minuscule on lines ruled with dry point. There are 27 lines to a page. The text of the Rule is written in red or green ink. Coloured or decorated initials are sometimes used, particularly following extracts from the Rule and to denote the start of the chapters. A hole in the folio reveals part of the text on folio 184v. The folio is extensively stained and the lower margin has been cut away. A note of later date in the margin has been cropped. The last leaf is a small fragment; it was not the last of the volume.
