Reconstruction Summary
A fragment consisting of the inner column of one leaf. (The two fragments of text are therefore not continuous).
The text is written in a carolingian minuscule in brown ink with red rubrics. There were two columns, each ca. 36 x 10 cm in written area.
On the verso there are two drawings in pen and ink on each side of the column of text: a bearded man with a scroll of text (on the left) and a young man wrestling with a dragon (on the right). From the style, they were probably done at the Abbey of Anchin near Douai in France.
Recto: Homilia XXII in feria sexta quatuor temporum (PL 94.315A-B) -- verso: In Lucae evangelium expositio, book 5 on Luke 18 (PL 92.550B-D), headed "Pro adversitat[e] eccl[esi]ae."
