Wien, Österreichische Nationalbibliothek, Cod. lat. 424 is a middle ninth-century manuscript of 9 folios in 1 col. and 30 lines (295 x 203 mm). Its codicological composition is unknown at the time of writing. No quire signatures were included. Modern foliation was made in Arabic numerals in lead pencil. The work was written by at least four different scribes in Caroline minuscule. Its origin is from Salzburg and probably its monastery according to Steinová and its catalogue. About its provenance, however, less is known: we know for sure it was bought in 1675 by Peter Lambeck for the Hofbibliothek in Vienna from an unknown seller.
