Notes

At fol. 126r, next to the last line of RVF 336, the copyist writes a note on Laura’s death: ‘Madonna Laura mori adi sei daprile 1345’.
 
RVF 1-4 are missing due to the loss of fols. At the bottom of fols. 122r and 128r, a later hand copies again a few lines of poems already copied.
 
Entry compiled on the basis of microfilm CNSM.POS 18334 of the Centro Nazionale per lo Studio del Manoscritto (Rome, Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale Vittorio Emanuele II).
