Traditionally regarded as spurious works of Isidore of Seville, but attributed in 1926 to the wisigothic bishop Sisbert of Toledo (end of the 7th c.) by J. Pérez de Urbel. Although it became a widespread denomination, today it is considered a spurious attribution]. pp. 87-94 Pseudo-Sisbert of Toledo Exhortatio poenitendi Exhortato pęnitentis cum consolatione et misericordia dei ad animam futura iudicia formidantem Cur fluctuas anima cultores effertur mundi.

Ed. F. Arévalo, Sancti Isidori Hispalensis episcopi opera omnia, T. VII, Roma: Antonium Fulgonium, 1803, pp. 358-373 (= PL 83, cols. 1261-1274). Parchment 138 pp. 19,5 x 14 cm Part I: IV18; Part II: 5 IV98 + III110 + IV126 + IV-1140: Quires are numbered in the bottom margin of p. 98 (V), p. 110 (VI) and p. 126 (VII), and indicate correctly the end of the 5th, 6th and 7th quire of the second codicological unit. One column, with 24 (sometimes 23 or 25) lines per page. The Codex, put together of two codicological unites, is written in a praegotica of the 12th century. The first unit (pp. 3-18) was copied by several scribes (Hand 1-6), while the second (pp. 19-140) could be written by only one scribe (Hand 7), with some additions of Hand 8. Hand 1: texts 1a-1d (pp. 3-4). Hand 2: beginning of the text 1e (p. 5) and maybe the red title in p. 4. Hand 3: rest of the text 1e (pp. 6-12). Hand 3b: text 2 (pp. 12-16) was copied by Hand 3 or a similar, but sometimes different Hand 3b. Hand 4: text 3, a list of abbots from Nomina abbatum (p. 16) probably to mensibus tribus (p. 17). Hand 5: he added more abbots, from Hic fuit abbas to Vodalricus (p. 17) and started the marginal list of kings and emperors, from Pipinus (p. 16) to Heinricus VI Imperator (p. 17), binding them with lines to each one of the contemporaneous abbots. Hand 6: he added more abbots, from Vodalricus to Bertholdus annis · xxiii, and three more kings (from sub philippo to sub friderico imperatore), binding them also to some contemporaneous abbots (p. 17). Hand 7: The second codicological unit (pp. 19-140) could have been copied by one hand with variations and changes of the ink, pen and line narrowness (see p. 35). The variations are capable of being differenciated (see pp. 96-99) so that further research could maybe specify different hands. All red headings seem to be by one hand. Hand 8: marginal red titles to some sections of the Synonyma (see p. 48 or p. 53). Some little corrections or additions to Text 4 and 5 were made later by different hands. Headings in capitals and initial letters are written in black on pp. 3-4 and pp. 16-17; some of them are decorated with red ink (pp. 4-5) or written in black and highlighted with red ink (pp. 5 8-12). Headings in capitals and initial letters are red in the rest of the manuscript (see p. 4 12, etc., esp. the Book I of the Synonyma and the Lamentum). Marginal red titles appear in p. 48 52 53, etc.

The manuscript seems to have been written in St. Gall: according to W. Meyer and K. Strecker the Exhortatio and Lamentum are copied from Cod. Sang. 269 (10th c.). Many indications show that it has been always there: the note Liber S. Galli (p. 3), the list of abbots of St. Gall (pp. 16-17) and the seal of the Monastery Library (p. 140).
