Notlar	Dark red leather, probably goatskin, over thin wooden boards cut with a horizontal grain. No tooling. Spine rebacked with a piece of black leather. No evidence of flap or clasps. Red and green endbands, probably cotton, not raised but woven in a chevron pattern. Inside boards lined with white cloth under the turn-ins; however, the cloth is evident under the white one. Edges are colored burgundy. Board attachment appears to be four typical loops; however, the attachment to the wooden boards goes through the cloth doublure (rather than having the cloth doublure covering the loops, which is more common). No notches. Some conjugate pages are guarded. Probably rebound. \| Very good state of preservation. Some leaves, including the principle colophon at the end of the book, are missing. Several leaves have suffered damage from dampness. \| The illustrations of the codex consist of seven marginal palmettes and birds beginning on fol. 186v, and 162 tubular, bird-form and animal-form initials which mark the beginnings of individual homilies.This book evidently was illustrated in several stages. The marginalia are generally drawn in confident red lines. Mostly bird-form, the decorative initials vary in the quality of their line and their palettes. From fol. 8 to fol. 35v, it is clear that the scribe left space for letters, allowing for specific embellishments. The clumsy initials, drawn in hesitant lines of faded brown, do not fill the spaces, being usually much smaller and occasionally off-center (e.g., fol. 20 and 28). On fol. 35v, the initial is a mere jotting in black ink. On fol. 39, incised outlines are visible, defining an elegant initial made up of lively birds. Over this the initial has been drawn in sloppy black lines. From fol. 43 on, sprightly bird forms are carried out in a bewildering variety of lines – confident, shaky, traced over, black, gray, and several other shades of red. Some are bare outlines, some are shaded, some are filled in completely.The animal-form initials, while far fewer than the bird-form ones, are equally varied. The feline I on fol. 1 is drawn in soft shades of the purple used in the rubric. The S on fol. 26 is composed of two felines outlined in black and shaded in red. The Ch on fol. 167v is a dog drawn in heavy black lines and highlighted with touches of red. \| Text in minuscule bolorgir, written in two columns of 31 lines each. Titles of homilies in red bolorgir; the opening lines of texts usually in large erkat‘agir, and several succeeding lines in magenta bolorgir. Subtitles within individual homilies in red bolorgir. Abbreviations used extensively throughout the text. Fifty-one quires numbered in the letters of the Armenian alphabet, written in large notragir in magenta in the lower margin of the page. The quires have gatherings of 12 leaves each. \| None.Prayers and Inscriptions: On inside front cover; Fol. 1, Fol.2. In upper margin. Fol. 28; Fol. 108; Fol. 158v; Fol. 167v; Fol. 186v; Fol 217v; Fol. 273; Fol. 294; Fol. 320v; Fol. 373v; Fol. 394v; Fol. 321v; Fol. 445v; Fol. 476v; Fol. 615v; Fol. 616v. \| more \| less
