Description:
Notes on the colours of urines, and a description of the four seasons in relation to the four humours. A crude flower drawing appears after 'monthes' on line 12. Lines 28 and 29 are an addendum in a smaller hand in the bottom margin. In the top right corner 'a[m]aris' is written in the same smaller hand as the crude flower drawing on line 12. Lines 28-29, written perhaps by a leech to his pupil, are also written in this hand, as are many of the notes in the margin from around f33r onwards. Line 20 'is colde and dry' is written over 'malancoly'. The written space is c. 163 x 115 mm and the script is anglicana.
