Tract on urine [incomplete], 13th century

 Part
Identifier: MS 167/ff. 34r-45r

Contents

Ff. 34-45 of MS 167 contain another medical text that is difficult to identify. It begins imperfectly mid-sentence on f. 34r with ...sue humanitatis beneficio... As such, there is no title or incipit line for identification, but its contents appear to deal with urine. The text ends on f. 45r with the words discurendo membrorum.

Writing

This text is by a third thirteenth-century hand found in MS 167.
