Palaeographical information |
Lines 6 and 7 are written in the wrong order. This was corrected in the margin by adding a β before v. 6 and an α before verse 7.
Sicherl (1988: 62): 'der Hymnus ist auf f. 88v von einer Hand des 14. oder 15. Jh nachgetragen.' Giannelli (1950: 80) dates the hand that wrote the epigram to the 14th century. |
Contextual information |
The poem follows after the work 'De Divinis Nominibus' by Ps.-Dionysius the Areopagite. |
