The text is divided according to the Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: τιτλοι (titles) at the top. There is also another division according to the smaller Ammonian Sections (in Mark 234 sections), without a references to the Eusebian Canons.[6]

It contains subscription, Verse, lectionary markings (later hand), and pictures. Synaxarion and Menologion were added by a later hand on paper.[6] [5]
