`%%`	(two percent signs) is the placeholder for no, one or more than one character, but not for blank space (so that a search ends at word boundaries).

10r–⁠109v Images	‘[text] Ptolomeus. Res, o Missori, quibus perficiuntur prenosticationes accepte de astronomia aures et nobiliores… [comm.] Iste totalis liber Ptolomei Pheludiani dividitur in quatuor partes principales. In prima posuit regulas introductorias — finem in hoc loco huic libro imponere conveniens extimamus. Finis anno 1506 ipso die sancti Nicolai.’ = 〈Commentum Cracoviense in Quadripartitum a. 1505-1507〉 (C.2.13) . Book I, 10r-33r (33r: ‘Anno domini 1505, feria quinta post Simonis Iud.’); II, 34r-57v (57v: ‘Finis anno 1507, feria secunda ante nativitatem Mariae’); III, 67r-94r; IV, 94r-109v. Extraneous (?) material added by the scribe on f. 33v (horoscope and notes), 58r-59r (14 horoscopes, one of which dated 1509 on f. 59r). F. 60-64, of smaller size and copied by a later hand, contain additional material related to Ptolemy: ‘(60r-61r) Quoniam in praedictionibus Pto<lomeus> praecepit quinque observare, scilicet locus, tempus, genus, exaltatio et plenitudines…’; (64r-64v) Propositio prima ne pretermittas centum et XIX (!) coniunctiones… » (Centiloquium v. 51 in Giovanni Pontano’s translation (B.1.9); f. 61v-63v and 65r-66v are blank). Substantial glosses throughout, which form the commentary.
125v–⁠153r	‘Centiloquium Ptolomei incipit. Dixit Ptolomeus: Iam scripsi tibi, Iesure, libros de hoc quod operantur stelle in hoc seculo… Scientia stellarum ex te et ex illis est… Expositio Hali super verbo primo Ptole<mei>. Quod dixit Ptolomeus, ex te et ex illis, significat qui res futuras… (126r) Dixit Pto<lomeus>: Mundanorum mutatio ad hoc et ad aliud corporum supercelestium… doctrina stellarum ex … (?) ex illis est. Nec est doctrina in ea ut propter hanc formam — et ego Deum precor ut diligat quoniam perfecta est huius libri translatio decimaseptima die mensis Martii, 12 die mensis Gumedi anno Arabum quingetesimo (!) tricesimo. Finis in vigilia Prisce hora quinta noctis anno 1506. Crac<ovie>.’ = Matthias de Krajna, 〈Lectiones in Centiloquium〉 (C.3.20) . The source text, copied in the centre of the page, is Plato of Tivoli’s translation (C.3.1.1), with the proposition of v. 1 also given in the ‘Mundanorum’ version (C.3.1.3) and in Adelard of Bath’s translation (B.1.1) (=‘threefold’ version). Substantial interlinear and marginal glosses by the scribe reflecting Matthias de Krajna’s lectures, at least in part, and whose beginning cannot be confidently located. The glosses also include v. 1-92 in George of Trebizond’s translation (B.1.7) labelled ‘alia translatio’ (‘Alia translatio. Iam pridem perutiles… Alia translatio. Abste et a scientia, non est enim possibile ut huius scientie professor — (150r) sicut nec Mars occidentalis’).
153r–⁠153v	‘Quod Ptolomeus intendit primum de angulis quadrati inclusi intra circulum directum equinoctialem — nam figura sedecim laterum claudit in se nedum quadratum verum et octogonum. Hec in explanatione verbi Ptolomei 60’ (followed by the diagram ‘Circulus concludens figuram quadratam octogonam seu octo laterum et sedecim laterum’). = Matthias de Krajna (?), 〈Commentum in verbum 60 Centiloquii〉 (C.3.21) . No glosses.
