  • De proprietatibus rerum. Ornamental initials with marginal decorations in blue and red, and red and blue; headings and paragraph marks in red. There is an early (15th cent.) foliation 1-ccxxxii which should read ccxxxiv as fol. cxl and fol. ccvii are doubled. There are two pairs of vellum fly-leaves, both of slightly smaller size than the text. The inner pair contain fragments from a contemporary unidentified commentary on the Aphorisms of Hippocrates. The outer pair are blank except for the inscription 'Liber andree hendersoni 1547' in calligraphic script on the recto of the first leaf. Fol. 1, col. 1 Cum proprietates rerum sequantur / substantias secundum distinctionem et ordi / nem substantiarum ... 260v, col. 2, line 6 ... principium et finis omnium bonorum qui / est deus sublimis et gloriosus uiuens et regnans in secula seculorum Amen. / (red) Explicit tractatus de proprietatibus rerum. / Auctores ['q' struck through] de quorum scriptis sunt hec tracta. sunt isti Au / gustinus.

Below the end of the text is a partly erased inscription by a 15th cent. hand: 'Iste liber peruenit ad conuenum Venetum maiorem / ex diuisione librorum cuiusdam magistri antonii macho / qui obiit dum esset iuratus [?] uenetiis et deputatus / testamento [?] libros librariae prefati conuentus'.
