Includes recipes, with several for potable gold (aurus potabilis) and tincture of cinnabar (tinctura de cinobrio), suggesting a focus on medical applications of alchemy, and with some notes on efficacy; diagrams; and 2 lists of alchemical works (f. 2v-3r, 4v-5r), with references to authors such as Arnaldus de Villanova, Ramon Lull, Johannes de Rupescissa, and Albertus Magnus.
