Manuscript Features
The folios are in disorder, therefore, with the foliation not visible in the microfilm, it cannot be determined whether the manuscript is complete or not.
The state of preservation is very good. Only a few folios are damaged in the margins.
Unfortunately both edges of the folios are cut in the microfilm.
