Explicit


In stark contrast to the incipit page of the manuscript the explicit page is very ordinary. The page has two columns of ordinary script (with the exception being the decorative initials, of slightly larger size than the remaining text). At the bottom of the column to the right can be seen the word explicit almost in the place of a signature. It seems to be used much as some modern books will have the words "the end" on the last page.
