Text is decorated on ff. 21r and 39r with a 3/4 border along the inner margin, top and bottom of page: red and black penwork embellished with blue and gold acanthus leaves in the lower inside corner, pink, blue and red fruit and flowers, green leaves and small gold seedpods. Many other pages have side borders of similar design. These borders are a mix of naturalistic and stylized fruit and flowers. Note especially ff. 4v and 46r where the flowers, set upright on a horizontal patch of green, give the impression that they are "growing." On ff. 49r and 56r a semé of large gold dots adorn the side border. Pages with 3/4 borders are illuminated with 3-line initials (D in both cases), blue with white penwork on a black-framed gold rectangular ground, the curve of the D ends, top and bottom in red finials with white penwork which extend outside the rectangle. Inside the initial, diagonal vines, black thinly lined with white, curve into red and blue flowers. The pages with side borders are decorated with 2-line initials, gold outlined in black on a red and blue ground; the ground is patterned with either white or gold geometric penwork designs. Line fillers are rectangles: half blue and half dark pink with white penwork framed in black, the two colors separated by a gold dot. The ink on some of the borders and initials is smeared.
