- Abstract:
- Manuscript on paper (various watermarks), composed in four parts, of 1) Pomponius Mela, De chorographia libri tres, ending abruptly in III.107. 2) Vibius Sequester, De fluminibus, fontibus, lacubus, nemoribus, paludibus, montibus, gentibus. 3) Unidentified text(s) on the names of the Roman provinces and their regions (ff. 47v-48v) and the names of the cities in the provinces (ff. 48v-50r). 4) Dares Phrygius, De excidio troiae historia, ending abruptly and missing f. 54. Arts. 5-9, a series of exordia, appear to be school exercises in Latin prose composition, all poorly written and heavily corrected. They follow approximately the text of Justinus' Epitoma, but are much abbreviated; the Latin is often incomprehensible without a prior knowledge of the historical narrative. 10) Short unidentified passages on Epirus.
