Two-page list of contents in Latin at the beginning of the codex.  The following list on fol. A-recto:

—Fotij de spiritu sancto.
—Φωτίου λόγος κεφαλαιώδης περὶ τῆς ἐκπορεύσεως τοῦ ἁγίου πνεύματος.
—Ἰωάννου Βέκκου ἀντίρρησις πρὸς τοῦτον [TLG 3137.002, p. 157].

Fols. 24v-25r  Psellus, De vitæ termino (Iter Psellianum no. 843 (PHI.120; p. 298); PG 122.916-920). Westerink's edition is from Parisini grr. 1000, 1267, 2087 and Monacensis gr. 384 (Moore, p. 298).  (In our Online Resources we give a link to the Google Books preview of Moore's invaluable book, though unfortunately the above pages are not included in the preview.)


Fol. 208v (an otherwise blank folio) has sums done in Greek letters, apparently reckoning years:

͵ε φ
τ ι η
σ ι
φ ν ε
ρ κ θ
_______
͵Ϛ ψ ι β
ν ζ
_______
͵Ϛ ψ ξ θ
ρ Ϟ β
_______
͵Ϛ Ϡ ξ α


This translates into the following:

vʹd  (anno incarnationis secundum Alexandrinos)
+ cccxviii
+ ccx
+ dlv
+ cxxix
= vʹmdccxii  (ca. añum Dom. 1212)
+ dvii
= vʹmdcclxix  (ca. añum Dom. 1269)
+ cxcii
= vʹcmlxi  (ca. añum Dom. 1461)
