    Quires 10 and 11 (f. 99-120, containing works 7-12 of the present manuscript) were originally a separate codicological unit. Some original folio numbers are extant and indicate that f. 99-120 were originally numbered 1-21. These quires may be slightly earlier in date than the rest of the manuscript. They were added to the rest of the volume when it was bound in the late 15th century.
