Occasional early annotations, including ‘nota' marks and underlining in the text in black ink.
Two- to five-line initials, some with extensions into the margins, and the principal initials with pen-work decoration in purple ink, are supplied in red, blue, or interlocked red and blue; paragraph marks are supplied in red or blue; capital strokes and underlining in red. The decoration seems to be by the same hand as in item 1, suggesting that the two items have been travelling together from soon after 1500.
