[edit]The codex contains the text of the four Gospels, on 250 parchment leaves (size 23 cm by 17.5 cm), with some lacunae.[3] The texts of Matthew 1:1-5:40; John 19:12-21:25 were supplied by a later hand in the 16th century.[5]
The text is written in one column per page, 20 lines per page.[3]
The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, but there is no their τιτλοι (titles) at the top of the pages.[5]
It contains tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel with a Harmony, lectionary markings at the margin, incipits, αναγνωσεις (lessons), (Synaxarion, Menologion from 16th century), subscriptions at the end of each Gospel, with numbers of στιχοι.[5]
