An Italian Book of Fate, consisting of 18 tables, each headed by a coloured figure and each with 18 answers., written in the first half of the 14th cent.

Three dice are to be thrown and the numbers turned up are referred to a particular table according to the nature of the object desired to be known. A modern note seems to imply that the arms on fol. iv are those of Feminiano di Serafino, for whom the book would in that case have been written.
