The beginning of the Gospel of Mark. The first word, 'Initium' ('Beginning'), is written with its first two letters enlarged and combined into a monogram which is decorated with interlace--the same design and type of ornament which appears in late 7th-century gospel books. The small red initials within the text mark the beginnings of sections of text, which are indicated by the numerals and notes in the right margin
