A copy of the Collectio Vetus Gallica (Mordek's "P2") with an appendix fol. 41r-74v (similar to that in Cod. Stuttgart HB. VI. 113) described in detail by Mordek, Kirchenrecht und Reform pp. 234-237. Fol. 75r-138r seems to contain a glossary, fol. 139v-139v a list of abbreviations.
Mordek argued on basis of the chronicle ending with events of 747 or 749 (and the "barbarian" Latin) that BnF lat. 10588 was (ultimately) copied from a model written in that time; hence, he held, the "süddeutsche Version" of the Vetus Gallica originated in Burgundy before the mid-eighth century.

- Mordek, Kirchenrecht und Reform pp. 286-287, here at 287:
- "entstanden möglicherweise in Burgund, „kann aber wohl auch aus einer anderen Gegend der Südhälfte Frankreichs stammen" (B. Bischoff in einer brieflichen Mitteilung; anders dagegen W. M. Lindsay, in: Glossaria Latina 5, S. 152: „c. ann. 800, ni fallor, in scriptorio Germanico exaratufs]")."
