Description:
Medical recipes. Line 2: 'stone' is written in the left margin. Line 5: 'also for the feuyr' is written in the left margin. The title of recipe lines 5-6 is written in a relatively careful hand (Anglicana). Line 9 % symbol = probatum est? and note the line space at end of recipe/paragraph. Line 10 $ = blotch or scribal error. Line 12: 'seke' is written as an interlineation at the end of line 12 and 'seke' has a line drawn above it to denote that it belongs to line 12. Line 13 'p(ro)batu(~)' is written in left margin. Line 23 'fodde' is written interlinearly underneath the end of line 23. Line 27 % = a further symbol denoting the end of paragraph/recipe, with dots in the loops akin to an infinity sign. Between lines 28-31 in the left margin, vertically, is written 'preuewell' with a mark pointing to the word 'shard'. The written space is c. 163 x 115 mm and the script changes here from secretary to anglicana.
