Leaf, foliated 142 in a 14th century hand, from the register of the Court of Criminal Justice of the Commune of Pistoia, written by Andreas, son of the notary Johannes Thome de Aquata, as notary and 'officialis' of the Podestà, Parisanus de Parisanis de Castiniano. The sentences are dated 19 July 1337, and marginal notes by other notaries of subsequent payment of fines are dated 11 Aug 1337 and 6 Jun 1342. Includes a specimen of the notarial sign of Andreas.
The manuscript was folded to make a bifolium to act as fly-leaves for a book measuring about 302 mm x 210 mm. The fly-leaves contain the following inscriptions in the same humanist hand, probably all made on the leaf in 1563:(i) 'Hic Liber est Antonii de Ce(n)tiis et suorum amicorum. Non est amicus noster qui nostra bona tulit'. (ii) 'Hic liber est Antonii d(e) Ce(n)tiis'. (iii) [1563] 'Valeri [sic] Max(i)mo. fu sta(m)pato da Bernado de Benali in Venetia MCCCCLXXXVIII, die VIIII Novembris, che sono anni 75 de [?] fu sta(m)pato questo libro'.

'Fragmenta regalia, or, Observations on Queene Elizabeth her tymes and favorites' by Sir Robert Naunton. An autograph letter accompanying it, from T.R. Maynard, 1845, suggests that this is the original MS. It was first published, posthumously, in 1641. Internal evidence points to c. 1630 as the date of composition.

GB 0096 MS 932 · Mid 13th century

Two manuscript fragments, written in England in the mid-13th century, containing part of the text of Boethius's De topicis differentiis, comprising:
Fragment I recto = 'ambiguitatemque adducta...iustus non est' (1174 C 8-1175 A 10).
Fragment I verso = 'ut ita demum...in orationibus inve...' (1175 B 4-D 5).
Fragment II recto = 'aliae vero quas animus...inhaereat' (1176 C 8-1177 B 9).
Fragment II verso = '...niantur. Nam saepe...inveniri' (1175 D 5-1176 C 8).
References given relate to J.P. Migne Patrologiae Cursus Completus...series (Latina) Prima (Paris, 1844-1864).
This is as the fragments are bound, but of course II verso follows directly on I verso, so they are consecutive leaves with a continuous chunk of text apart from the cropping to I. The text is heavily abbreviated and the margins substantial, evidently designed for glosses. The text seems to be considerably different from that given in Migne.
