Summary

Fragment consisting of two halves of a single leaf, used in a binding. Text is from two sermons, one of them attributed to Saint Augustine. However, the opening words of this homily cannot be identified in M. Vattasso's Initia Patrum (Rome 1906, 1908), 2 vols; in catalogue of the British Library Royal manuscripts (London, 1921). The large format implies that the leaf was intended for public reading at a public lectern, and to facilitate such reading very few abbreviations were employed. Some loss of text caused by the separation of the leaf; otherwise there are a few holes and some stains.
