General note
| The MS is a composite collection that, according Bignami, belonged to Lorenzo Zaccagni (†1712). Fol. 44 is of Germanic origin, but the other texts are of Italian origin. The MS is written in several late Gothic hands in dark brown ink. To fol. 44r capitals and paragraph signs are red, with a red rubric at fol. 31r. The old shelf mark '374' appears at fol. 1r. Fol. 125v has notes on the general councils of Constance, Basel and Ferrara-Florence. At fol. 126r is written: 'fragmenta iuris canonici et ciuilis'. The first two quires are quinions; the rest, senions. Catchwords are at lower right, except for one which is centered on fol. 173v; to fol. 43v they are framed in red, thereafter, occasionally in ink. Fol. 45 is damaged. For the watermarks, cf. Briquet nos. 11726, 14463, 5747, 4076, 9936, 5153, 3570, and 788. The MS has an old parchment binding, possibly contemporary with the assembling of the collection. Fol. 30v, 101r-102v, 112r-v, 119v-125r, and 201r-v are blank.
