Description

De universo (also called De rerum naturis), an encyclopedia by Rabanus Maurus, is on folio 2r-28r. It is not a complete copy of the text, including only books 12-22.

Also contains De computo by Rabanus Maurus (folio 29r-39v).

The script is almost unreadably small, and most pages have a water stain mostly or completely obscuring the bottom quarter.
