Medieval medical texts, written in Italy in the fourteenth century: Nicolaus [Salernitanus], Antidotarium (ff. 1-21 verso); [Johannes de Parma], Collectiones omnibus capitulorum libri Mesue (ff. 22-25); Compilatio flebotomie de qualibet vena (ff. 25-26); recipes, 'Cassia fistulatum...' (ff. 26-27); recipes in two later hands of XIV or XV cent. (ff. 27-37).
Folios 1 and 2, 6 and 7, 18 and 19 are palimpsests. The lower script, partly legible under ultra-violet light, is from a book of transacts of a notary, Albericus [?], 'notarius sacri palatii', written not much earlier than the medical texts; there is reference in one document (f. 12) to 'villa de quart' [?Quart, near Aosta].
