Beinecke MS 21(olim Z109.08)                                       England, s. XIII^^2
Aristotle, Physica (fragment)

          ff. 1r-2v    //quies medium est quare si aliquis motus statu
     occupetur neque unus est neque continuus repitur [corrected to
     recipitur]...erunt alie quidem uio//[lente]

     Physica, Book V (in Latin translation); Aristoteles Latinus, Pars
     prior, p. 248, no. 27. Early printed text by M. Herbipolensis [Martin
     Landsberg], Summi philosophorum principis Aristotelis libri octo de
     phisico...(Leipzig, 1512), I iii verso-I vi recto.

          Parchment, ff. 2 (central bifolium of a quire), 245 x 197 (160 x
     92) mm. Written in 29 long lines; double vertical bounding lines full
     length of page, with two pairs of additional rulings (to form columns
     for marginal notes) in inner and outer margins; ruled in lead.
          The text was written by a single scribe in gothic textura; the
     interlinear and marginal notes and commentary at bottom of the folio
     are in several less formal hands.
          Paragraph marks in red or blue; running titles in same colors.
          The bifolium was apparently removed from a binding for it bears
     evidence of trimming, folding, rubbing, and pasting.

          Written in England in the second half of 13th century; provenance
     unknown, for there are no Beinecke library records concerning this
     manuscript.

     Bibliography: De Ricci, v. 1, p. 166, no. 21.
