'Antonii Cornazani in laudibus et amoribus diue Angele odarum materna lingua liber incipit.', written in about A.D. 1500 in Italy
The title probably covers fols. 1-49v, but several additional poems in Latin follow, presumably by the same author.
On fol. i is 'Iõ Mã' above a coat, azure a column or surmounted by cross keys argent on a chief of the second an eagle displayed gules (or sable ?): no doubt the book was written for this person.
