Book of 14 wide folios, consisting of several fragments of various sizes; none of them is complete, and of the first only a small fragment with no writing survives. Folios 3 to 14 were mounted in separate glass frames; the fragments of folios 1 and 2 were framed together. The unwritten fragment of folio 1 is attached to the left-hand side of the larger fragment of folio 2; two additional fragments of folio 2 were acquired in 1926. Corrections are added in the interlinear space, and sometimes old figures are also underlined.
