Description
  • Two in situ binding fragments (raised pastedowns) bearing text from an early fourteenth-century copy of the Digest of Justinian, probably French. The lower and inner parts of the leaves have been cut away. Glue and ownership plates obscure the surviving text, which is from book 38, titulus 10 ("De gradibus et adfinibus, et nominibus eorum"), rubric 10, paragraphs 9-17. The text begins on the outside of the rear pastedown (=fol. [1]r) and runs through the inside of the front pastedown (= fol. [2]v). The leaves were consecutive in the codex from which they derive.
