Written in one column per page, in 22-25 lines per page.[1] It contains Prolegomena to the Pauline epistles only, lectionary markings, and subscriptions.[2][3]
Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[4]
History
In the 14th century the manuscript belonged to Kosmas, a monk.[2] It was brought to England from the East by John Luke, professor of Arabic in Cambridge.[2] It was examined by Wettstein. John Berriman, one of the former owners of the manuscript, presented it in 1761 to the British Museum.[3]
The manuscript is currently housed at the Cambridge University Library (Dd. 11.90) at Cambridge.[1]
