Our galleries are quietest on weekdays and weekend mornings. At busy times, particularly on Saturdays, you may need to queue for our temporary exhibitions.

We’re undertaking some research with website visitors to learn more about how people find access-related information provided by museums. This survey shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time!

In Flemish.
Written by a semi-current gothic book-hand in double column of 31-37 lines to a column: spaces for capitals. The pages are unnumbered.
Part of the first page is wanting, as the upper part of the leaf has been torn off: the chapter ends, line 10: '...end sacht/moedich tot sinen here end/tot sinen voeder'. This first chapter in the manuscript appears to be numbered II, which is in accordance with the index.
The last chapter, numbered CXCI, is 'Teghen die hete pisse'. This ends line 15: '...den parde/gheuen sal te drinken end/et sal alghenesen'. 
After this come various receipts. 
Below this another contemporary hand has written a receipt in 6 lines 'Tot dye crone van die woet'. 
Finally comes the Index, listing chapters numbered from II to CXCI.
