<p>Written in a neat humanistic hand. Illustrated with 38 well executed pen drawings of constellations, etc., the stars in red. The manuscript is foliated 120r-153v, so it was originally part of a larger work. The illustrations are mostly in the style of the printed editions of Manilius, Hyginus and Aratus.</p>

<p>f. 121r Aetherios orbis, subiectaque templa deorum / Musa cane, atque uias semper uoluentis olimpi / ... 153v Qui nunc astrorum motus subiectaque diuum / Templa cano atque uias semper uoluentes olimpi.</p>
