At end, 'Explicit liber xxus Ethymologiarum Ysodori episcopi': leaves are lost after fols. 45, 73, and probably elsewhere: and additional 13th cent. lists of the chapters are on fols. 163 - 169. 'Dobbz [or, Dobbr] de H.', perhaps the rubriccator's name, is on fol. 162. [Probably that of a late 13th cent. rubricator. E.W.B.N.].
