The Consolation of Philosophy

...sacra (except the book against Eutyches), Consolatio with certain scholia (see Naumann 14, 17), metrical explanation to I m. v (p. 13, 25 sqq.); the poems are written in uncial letters in red lead. The fifth gathering fell out long ago; what is now read on folios 33—39, supplemented in the 11th century from the Maihingen codex (see Schepss' Würzburg program, p. 27), is of no value. The codex T cannot be ascribed to the 10th century, since the St. Gall 844 (see below 69), which was copied from it in the year 872, is in any case older; rather, if you look at the forms of the letters (thick upper strokes and letters like r and t joined together), it should be attributed to the beginning of the 9th century.
