The manuscript, written by (or at least for) Bernold of Constance in the 1080s or 1090s contains a variety of canon law texts including the Collection in 74 Titles, its Swabian Appendix, the Epitome Hadriani, excerpts from Burchard's Liber decretorum, the Decretum Gelasianum, and various penitential tetxs. A very similar combination of texts is found in Stuttgart, WLB, HB VI 107 (Autenrieth, Kottje).
