Physica

Physicae pars secunda, sive physica particularis. Illustrated with a few pen-drawn figures, spaces have been left for numerous others. An unnamed student's notes of lectures, probably taken down at a French university or school. The main work is complete, but the 'Problemata quaedam' are unfinished. The date 1684 is found in the section on the magnet. Following this is an unfinished tract headed 'De Jubilaeo concesso a Ciemente undecimo anno 1701', which seems to have been added slightly later.

c. 1690
