| Binding | Pre-bound. Book seems to consist of six gatherings, many blank pages. Half calf over marbled paper boards. |

| Indications of use | On second last page, a brief ambigraph entry in Greek, seemingly a timeline of Sophocles' life. |
| Organization | Brief ambigraph entry in Greek on the second last page. |
