Woodblock mark on the title pages, burnished specimen, two woodworm holes on all the files that marginally affect the mirror of the text, slight halo at the lower outer corner, rare small spots, coeval parchment binding with manuscript title on the back with two nerves, traces of ribs in green fabric, blue cuts, paper gusset on the back, some small stains. Ancient hand annotations to the guard cards.

Specialist Notes

The French astrologer and physician (1510-1578) offers the reader a curious collection of topics from a mystical-alchemical perspective. The work, organized in nine centuries, presents popular beliefs in the form of aphorisms that intersect the natural sciences with the sphere of the supernatural and the arcana.
