Additional Comments:

F.1 and 2 were originally separate from f.3. The lower part of f.2 has been cut off. F.1 and 2 were later stuck to f.3 with tape. A series of holes run along the tape, suggesting that after the leaves were stuck together, they were included in a bound collection. F.1 and 3 also feature a horizontal fold line, suggesting that the manuscript was folded this way after the leaves had been stuck together. The paper used for f.1 and 2 is of a higher quality than that used for f.3. 

Decorations:

Undecorated

Additions:

The hand responsible for the main text on f.3 has added a brief marginal note and one minor correction to p.1. Marginal notes have been added to f.3, along with crossings out and emendations to the text. These additions are made in a different hand to that of the main text.
