CodexPaperiii, 221, ivLater foliation:
Between some of the sections (after ff. 46, 89, 175) and in the middle of one section (after f. 26)
blank pages have been inserted which are not included in the foliation,
hence the foliation runs from 1-217 but there are 221 leaves
Poor: Many leaves have had to be mounted, presumably due to severe deterioration.
Plain (later)
Leaves bound on supports.
