An account of the complete text of the Quadripartitum in tabular form put together by Giulio Angeli da Barga (Julius Angelius Bargaeus), professor of medicine at the University of Pisa from 1577 to 1593. This account was perhaps prepared in or around 1583, for in the unique manuscript, which is most probably Giulio Angeli da Barga’s autograph, a sheet of paper inserted between the title page and the beginning of the text contains the horoscope of the New Moon of 9 June 1583 for latitude 44° (Pisa). The text does not seem to correspond to any of the known Latin translations and was probably written on the basis of the Greek text, as the title also suggests.

Cum ea contemplatio quae ad universales casus pertinet in praecedentibus instituta nobis fuerit quippe quae praecedit — quaelibet est (?) supra expositis reddenda co… (?) con…vit (?).
