The two sections shown in the collation consisting of single unpaged leaves are blanks.
Baudrier describes the section following the colophon at the end of Revelation, which contains the glossary and indexes, as "58 ff. n. chiff., sign. a-e [i.e. sign. a-c] par 8, d par 10, a-c par 8." His copy apparently lacked leaf ⁹c9, containing the index of place names.
LC copy bound in 2 v. The 2nd has binder's title: Prophetae.
