This text is a derivation of the Fiore di virtù, with only the animal descriptions and not the moralizations. It is on folio 233v-237r. The manuscript is small (the text block is only 6 x 4 centimeters), and the script is highly abbreviated and very difficult to read.

Begins: La nibbia la quale à questa natura, et tanta invidiosa, che s' ello vede ingrasare li suoi figliuoli in del nidio. Ends: L' una vuol tore il mele a l' autra, e none usarebbe mai niuna lopa.
