- Manuscript codex. Prologus, Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numeri, Deuteronomiu, Iosue, Iudicu, Ruth, Regu I, II, III, IV. Paralip I, II. Esdras I, II, III. Tobit, Iudith, Hester, Iob, Psalms. Parabole salomonis, Eclesiastes. Cantica, Sapientie, Ecclesiasticus, Ysayis, Iherentia, Lamtatios. Baruch, Ezechihel, Daniel, Osee, Ioel, Amos, Abdia, Ionas, Micheas, Naum, Abacuch, Sophonias, Aggeus, Zachaias, Malachias, Machabeor[um] I, II. Titum, Philemone, Hebraos, Actus, Iacobus, Petrus I, II. Iohannes I, II, III. Iude, Apocalipsis, Interpretations (Hebrew Names), Concordance or Subject Index., Decoration: Illuminated with large initials in gold paint (not leaf) and tarnished silver leaf, blue, red, and green with white tracery. Designs include human faces, grotesque animals, and interlaced vines and strapwork. Capital letters in red and blue. Text pages have runner in alternating letters of blue and red., Binding: Dark green morocco over boards, blind-stamped in diagonal mesh. Gold tooled paneling with corner fleurons inside covers. Deeply tooled gilt crest with monogram TW (Theodore Williams) on front cover; armorial design on back. On six-paneled spine: 'S. S. BIBLIA LATINA. CODEX ANTIQUUS. SUPRA MEMBRANIS'. Gilt and gauffered edges. Two flyleaves of newer, heavier parchment. Text has been trimmed., Script: Minute (1 mm high) Gothic script in brown ink with rubrication. The size is typical of the 13th century, versus the large works of the 12th century (per Sir Edward Maunde Thompson (1840-1929) in Introduction to Greek and Latin Paleography). Includes corrections by another scribe. The uncrossed '7' for 'et' indicates Italian origin. However, the script also shows French influence. The appearance of some rounded letterforms points to an early date for this manuscript showing its strong Carolingian influence., Origin: On the leaf before the MS. commences is a note in a 14th c. hand, 9 lines, in red and black, giving rules for finding the date of Easter from 1350 onward. Also on this leaf the 14th c. owner's name apparently appeared, but has been erased; there remains a note that the MS. cost him 19 florins...Also a further note for finding the date of Easter occurs on the last leaf...repeating the words 'mill'io C.C.C. quinquagesimo. This shows the book is earlier than 1350 (Thomas Thorp, bookseller, London).
