A fifteenth-century leaf bound into a book of seventeenth-century medical and culinary recipes and charms, likely (by internal evidence) from Bologna. The recto includes the end of an Italian poem in the tradition of the Regimen sanitatis Salernitanum as well as several Latin medical recipes; the verso includes several medical recipes and an unidentified Latin poetic list of women's faults, characterizing women as deplorable sinners, inherently evil and adulterous, all in Latin.
