      Decoration: Large initial "N" at beginning of prologue, painted in red, green, and white on a blue ground bordered in red. Large initial "V" at beginning of text in blue, rose, green, and gold.

      Decoration: These two large initials are executed in the French Romanesque style, typical of which is the irregular interlace patterns which subdivide and variate the surface of the initials so that, as in the case of the "V" (f.3r), the form of the initial itself is almost completely lost.
