The commentary on Triumphus Pudicitie, Mortis Ia, and Mortis I mainly gives a literal paraphrase of the lines of the capitoli, offering basic textual explanations, as well as content-related and lexical clarifications.
In the margins of the commentary, scattered annotations by the same hand point out the passages of the Triumphi referred to in the prose text.
Fol. 44r[=fol. 87] is severely damaged and broken. Some fols. – before fol. 44 – (possibly, with the first part of the commentary focusing on Triumphus Amoris I-IV) are lost. Fol. 47[=fols. 93-94] was wrongly bound after fol. 48[=fols. 95-96].
