Palaeography:CISP: The lettering is Insular half-uncial. The R, H, L, and A have wedge-shaped finials. The R is half-uncial, the M and N have curved top-strokes and the L is curved. The D has an ascender which bends to the left over an open heart-shaped bow. The A has a flourish from its bottom right-hand corner like also appears on CLMAC/151, CLMAC/153, CLMAC/185, CLMAC/191 and CLMAC/197. The bow also has a slightly angular appearance thanks to the verticality of the right ascender.
