This manuscript contains the commentary on the Epistles of St Paul by Lucius Annaeus Florus (c. 74 AD – c. 130 AD), a Roman historian who lived in the time of Trajan and Hadrian. The manuscript is signed by the scribe Johannes Monoculus. The long descender of the first illuminated initial (on folio 1r) includes in the foliage little roundels of a monk, with his name Richard, who presumably supervised the commission, and of the artist, a layman, seated at a sloping table, with his name above him, Felix.
