Gospel texts, with heading and preface by Theophylactus and calendar of saints. Leaves 231a-235b, list of readings for weekly and festal occasions. Resurrectional prokeimenon on leaf 237b. Leaf 238a, a table of modes for the weekly Gospel. Additions on leaf 238b in red ink are unclear. Ornamentation characteristic for a tetraevangelion.

The manuscript is similar to Ms. Narodna Biblioteka "Kiril i Metodiì†" No. 41, also copied by Nikodim.
