Cambridge, Corpus Christi College, 19 is a copy of Ivo's Decretum (C in Brett's edition; see the list of sigla).
From Christ Church, Canterbury, in two columns, c. 1125, and written there. It is a stately copy in the characteristic Canterbury script of the period, in two columns.
The text more frequently agrees with M than P does, but the agreement of C and P against M is far commoner. R is close to C in what it omits and includes, but cannot have been copied from it. See Somerville (1994) and Councils and Synods (1981) I (2) 729, 744-9 for the additions.
