Approx. date?1200 to 1249
Date notes'Première moitié du XIIIe siècle' (Jung 1996, 123); 'commencement du XIIIe siècle' (Constans 1912, VI:19). But cf. 'XIVe s.' (Fossier 1982, 467).
Place(s) of production
'Écrit en Itallie' (Constans 1912, VI:19). Perhaps Florentine on the basis of the scripta (Busby 2002, II:607). The orthographical traits listed by Constans, however, would point to the eastern part of the oïl zone.

First words of last recto folio
Incipit[f. 1ra] Sallemons nos ansaigne et dit (Jung 1996, 123)
