[Clouds 1-11, 38-48 with scholia. On the verso ends of lines 1-11, on the recto parts of lines 38-48. Scholia on lines 2-5 are probably contemporary with the main text. Accents and breathings inserted by two hands: ll. 1-11, 38 in a second hand, ll. 39-48 in the hand of the original scribe. On the recto are glosses in the left-hand margin. In the upper margin, (recto), are some brief notes on line 52 written in a lighter ink and a different hand. A correction in the order of words in line 47 is probably later than the glosses in the margin, and was written by the writer of the notes in the upper margin. Line 1 appears at the top of a column, so it is likely that Clouds is the first play in this manuscript]
