The codex is a collective volume of different liturgical texts. It contains a gradual with neumes, a calendar with a series of computus tables, a sacramentary, a lectionary, and a ritual. Twelve scribes participated in preparing the manuscript. The manuscript is decorated with two pen-drawings and strapwork initials. The large illuminations display an original iconography.
