Lectiones super quartam fen primi Canonis Avicennae.

Written in double column of 51 lines to a column, in a semi-current gothic hand. Initials and paragraph marks in alternate red and blue.

On the first leaf is a large illuminated initial D in gold and colours, with marginal decorations of the same. Within is a miniature portrait, quarter-length, of Avicenna: he has a forked yellow beard, and wears a blue 'haik' with green lining over a red grown, the back-ground is dark blue.
