The present fol. 12 is apparently a replacement for an original folio removed from the manuscript. It contains the prologue and part of the table of contents for book 1 written in the scribe's developed humanistic hand. Since fol. 12r is inscribed with a coat of arms ("allegedly" those of Cardinal Fieschi according to De Ricci), the recopying was probably done to change the original arms...
