The book contains the Vulgate text of the four gospels, Eusebian canon tables, and other prefatory texts.

Even the Vulgate text in Latin is printed with lower-case lucifer (morning star), not upper-case Lucifer (proper name).

Cassiodorus has also been also indicated as reflecting the Vulgate text, rather than simply the Vetus Latina.
