  [Berkeley Vatican Project:] The texts are in a Gothic hand. Rubrics are red; initials and paragraph signs are red or blue, the former with penwork decoration. There ist a small illumination at the beginning, and spaces were left for miniatures at the beginning of both texts. On fol. 1ra in this space, which falls between rubric and text, an early modern hand wrote 'Item les Instituz de Iustinien en françois'; the same hand wrote this title in the upper margin of fol. 39r.'Pa. Petavius' is written in the lower margins of the same folios. Catchwords are at the lower right. Binding: 19th century
