The text alternates between Metrum (verse) and Prosa (prose), and this copy of the text begins with the fifth metrum of Book 2. The text of Books 2 and 3 is fairly heavily marked with interlinear glosses and occasional marginal notes and manicules, and has simple ornamental initials and rubrication; the remainder of the manuscript has only occasional interlinear glosses and spaces with guide letters for initials.Consolation -- Early works to 1800ConsolationHappiness -- Early works to 1800HappinessPhilosophy Ancient -- Early works to 1800Philosophy AncientPhilosophy and religion -- Early works to 1800Philosophy and religionCodicesAnnotationsDialoguesPoemsManuscripts LatinManuscripts MedievalMedieval StudiesPhilosophyArticle
