Following is the table of subjects, from c.116r to c.116v.
c.117r Incipit Liber de Regimine Sanitatis [single sheet of parchment] - explicit a c.127v, but the paper is halved, followed by a half-sheet in parchment always in materia medica.
Beautiful and interesting collection of medieval medical texts, collected at the end of the fourteenth century. The Tesaurus Pauperum by Pietro Ispano stands out, a classic of the subject, but also the treatise on the memory of Arnaldo da Villanova (1240-1311) is interesting. Recipes, medicines, potions of various kinds make up the vast collection of medicine of the time. The two treatises on the plague deserve a separate chapter, full of information on the origin, the spread and the various remedies to eradicate the deadly disease. & Nbsp;
