Notlar	None. Unbound, unsewn quires and detached sheets. There are no holes or notches in the folds of the quires, indicating that these quires were never sewn. However, the quires and sheets are now placed between two pasteboards from a detached binding, half floth and covered with balck and white mottled paper. These boards have white paper pastedowns and were originally sewn on three linen tapes. Watermark is the same as MS 85: “LESCHALLAS 1888.” We also see large countermark on conjugate leaf: “PRO BONO PUBLICO,” an “S”, and “UNIVERSAL FOOLSCAP.” \| Despite the defective binding, the MS is in a good state of preservation. Some leaves have suffered damage from dampness and there are lacunae between fols. 24 and 25. \| The illuminations of these fragments consist of one decorative design, a floral spray making a division between chapters (Fol. 21v), and three initials of which one is floral (fol. 13) and two are bird-form.Like MS 85, this codex is copied in a hurried hand, squeezed into two columns on paper that has not even been ruled horizontally. It is strange, then, to encounter even the perfunctory illumination. The inks of the text – black for commentary, red for citations from Matthew, blue for margin rulings – suffice for the illuminations as well.The floral spray on fol. 21v combines traditional Armenian forms (five-lobed buds and volute-edged leaves) with an open composition of freely meandering vine forms showing a more Western sensibility. \| Text in modern sheghagir, written in two columns of 39-40 lines each. Spiritual citations commented on are written in red sheghagir. Initials throughout in red, blue, or black erkat’agir. Headings of chapters 3 and 4 of the codex in blue erkat’agir. Only two complete quires of the codex have survived, both with gatherings of 12 leaves each. Of the remaining quire, only 6 leaves have survived. \| more \| less
