Summary
The first fragment is a flyleaf (a trimmed folio) in Carolingian minuscule, datable to the second half of the tenth century, which preserves excerpts from various writings (homilies and sermons) by Augustine and Gregory the Great.
The second fragment is also a flyleaf (another trimmed folio) in Southern Textualis with marginal annotations in semi-textualis, preserving Justinian's Digesta 2.11. This leaf was likely produced in Italy during the XIV century.
