Thesaurus pauperum: in Italian. Followed by surgical and other receipts in Italian and Latin. Written in a cursive italic hand, 26 lines to a page, by the same scribe as MS.

Most of fol. 22v and fol. 23 are written in a late 16th or early 17th cent. hand, which is also found in the additions to MS. No. 378 mentioned above.

On fol. 22 a receipt for 'Unguentum gratia dei' has been interpolated into the text, which continues on line 4 from the last line of fol. 21v. The numbering of the 'Capitula' in the table on fol. 1 and in the text does not coincide. In the former the last 'Capitulum' is XXV, in the latter XXII, though the headings are the same.
