Parchment — 135 fols. — 205 × 160 mm — Mondsee — s. X²

A collection of glosses to biblical and patristics texts. Each set of glosses is introduced by a rubric giving the title of the glossed text. The lemmata in Latin begin with capital letter followed by a short explanation in Latin or Old German. This collection of glosses is known as the Mondsee Bibel glossary (in German Mondseer Bibelglossar) from the second half or end of the ninth century transmitted in several manuscripts. The glossary was originally written in Bavaria. The exact place of origin is uncertain; one possibility is the scriptorium of Reichenau (Meineke 2009). The Mondsee manuscript is one of the oldest surviving.

Support: Almost exclusively made up of quaternions: 1⁸ (ff. 1-8), 2⁸ (ff. 9-16; 2 and 7 singletons), 3⁸ (ff. 17-24; 3 and 6 singletons), 4-12⁸ (ff. 25-96), 13⁸ (ff. 97-104; 4 and 5 singletons), 14⁸ (ff. 105-112; 3, 4, 5 and 6 singletons), 15⁸ (ff. 113-120; 4 and 5 singletons), 16⁸ (ff. 121-128; 4 and 5 singletons), 17⁷ (ff. 129-135; 3, 4 and 5 singletons). Leaves are ordered HFFH, with the exception of the last three quires, where the order is HFHF.

Layout: Ruled on superimposed leaves from the outermost bifolium in the quire on hair side.

Binding: Wooden boards thick - 13 mm.

History: According to the palaeographical analysis, the manuscript was written in the second half of the tenth century in Mondsee. — After the dissolution of the monastery almost all Mondsee manuscripts, including this one, were transferred to the Court library in Vienna (today the Austrian National Library).
