Here without title or author.

Preceded by a few extracts from L. Annaeus Seneca, de moribus, etc.

[Pp. 203-4 should come between pp. 172, 173, and the text ends at p. 202 'Phineas cum nepote Polidemonis' in lib. viii. It is without lacunae, but, as now bound, is interrupted after p. 173 by the interpolation of theological notes, beginning 'quidam literatus ut fertur legens in Scripturis' (pp. 179-90) and two blank leaves (pp. 191-4). Cr.]

With the preface to Gaudentius: unfinished (ending 'purgati: denique & hoc').
