      msNote: "Two manuscript notes in Italic script and language. On leaf v3v ('De avibus') approximate quotation (by heart) from John Florio, ‘Giardino di Ricreatione’ (London 1591), by an anonymous Italian-speaking subject:  ‘Ama Idio et nun falire, fa pur bene et lassia dire, il tempo passa la mo[r]te viene ...’. And on the titlepage of 'De Animalibus', the same hand: 'Morcendo chome ho detto di sopra vento'."
