Notes

In the colophon at fol. 163v is reported the date of transcription of the RVF. Unfortunately, it is hardly legible: ‘Mcccc.[†]xx’. The Roman letter following the fourth ‘c’ has the appearance of an ‘L’, but a date such as ‘1470’ conflicts with the clearly legible date ‘1430’ of the transcription of the Triumphi at fol. 209v.
 
Fol. 117 has been counted twice.
