Manuscript 67 contains the gospels of (ff. 1r-66r) Mark and (ff. 67r-148v) John, each with the Glossa Ordinaria. The authorship of these famous glosses - ordinaria refers to their popularity and common use, as they were commonly copied alongside Biblical texts - has been subject of scholarly discussion. Traditionally, they were ascribed to Walafrid Strabo (d. 849), though current consensus credits Anselm of Laon (d. 1117) with this work. The prologue found in front of the gospel of John is that of the Book of Revelations, the authorship of which is also attributed to John. Each page has a single column with the gospel text, surrounded by marginal glosses on each side, and occasionally interlinear glosses within the text. Initials are written alternately in red and blue ink. Especially well executed initials are found at the beginning of the prologue on Mark (f. 1r), the gospel of Mark (f. 2v), and the chapter mentioning Easter (f. 50v); they have been painted in red, blue, yellow and by using gold leaf. These are not found in the gospel of John. The first leaf of the prologue is lacking, just as the first leaf of the gospel itself. Since some initials have been cut out in the manuscript, it is possible that these leaves, having contained gilded and decorated initials equal to the ones found in Mark, have suffered the same fate. An ownership inscription of Ten Duinen is found on the last leaf. The manuscript is bound in a seventeenth-century binding of the 'Campmans' type. [Summary by Dr. Mark Vermeer]
