Early foliation and signatures, underlining, and occasional marginal notes. In the same hand, on A1r two distichs, which occur as a printed addition in other editions of the text [e.g. Antwerp: Gerard Leeu, 14 Mar. 1489]: ‘Alberti Magni manibus sepe iste libellus | Dulciter amplexus, sit tibi mente sedens | Virtutes veras nam ex hoc cognoscere posses | Quis potes ad celos carpere tutus iter' (Walther, Initia, 733).
