The notebook of a student of philosophy at Paris about A.D. 1660, giving copies of Latin discourses on Aristotelian logic and metaphysics, with corrections, not in a complete form. The first is headed 'Philosophia quadripartita. Disputatio de philosophia et dialectica. Capitulum de philosophia in communi. Questio prima. Que sunt nomina philosophiæ': text begins 'Nomen seu apellatio rei cuiuspiam.'

Nine tables engraved by P. Pougeois at Paris are bound in, and at the end a printed programme of Latin philosophical theses to be defended at Paris by Michael Le Vasseur on June 24, 1659.
