Text, folio 420 (verso), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

Cleveland Museum of Art

Yellowed parchment page with brown ink writing in a language that appears to be Greek. The page has dark purple stains scattered across it and a piece of clear tape on the top edge. The text is written in a flowing script with some letters larger than others. The page is worn and torn in places, with visible signs of aging and use. The page is from a book bound in a worn cover, with the page lying flat and the binding visible on the left side.
