These 48 leaves were acquired by Sir A. Chester Beatty and received the designation 'Chester Beatty Library Codex D'. Beatty's collection is now in Dublin, Republic of Ireland. Photographs of the 48 leaves and some fragments were published in a facsimile edition by S. Giversen in 1986. This, however, is a new critical edition of the manuscript itself. Languages: German.
