This hand is very similar to G.807-1b and may belong to the same scribe. Ascenders are long but usually lack wedges. Caroline and teardrop-shaped a were used, as was Caroline æ with a low rounded hook and straight rising tongue. The back of d is usually angled fairly steeply and is vertical-tipped, although Caroline d is also found. Round e was used with tongue and hook like those of æ. Caroline f was used, as was Caroline h, r, and s. Caroline g was also used, although Insular g is found early in the text. The top of Insular g is flat and relatively wide, the mid-section is angular and fairly vertical, and the tail is relatively wide, open, and curves up at the tip. The conventional distinction was made between þ and ð (but note gesyhþ). Like d, the back of ð is fairly steep and vertical-tipped, and the through-stroke lacks a hook. The north-east branch of x is hooked left, the north-west branch curves down, the south-east branch curves up, and the south-west branch is long and hooked right. Straight-limbed dotted y was used with the right branch hooked left.
