More about the Current Condition

The lower margins of both leaves have been trimmed, resulting in text loss. Part of the upper pastedown's outer margin is missing as well. For both leaves, only one side is illegible due to the fragments being used as pastedowns.

On the lower pastedown, prickings are visible in the margin due to the cover decoration (embroided patterns, with the treads missing).
