Numerous recipes. Title page glued to the front of the 3rd f., decorated with a chalice, surmounted by a host, flanked by the tables of the law.

Opposite, glued to f. 6r, a coloured portrait of Paracelsus holding in both hands a large sword in front of him. Another portrait f. 128v, in colour, of a figure with both hands on a skull.

Paracelsus (Philippus Throphrastus Aureolus von Hohenheim) (1493-1541) was a German-speaking (Alemannic dialect) Swiss physician, philosopher and lay theologian. The Bombast von Hohenheim family is a German noble family from the Duchy of Swabia, attested from the 12th century and extinct in the mid-16th century; it takes its name from the castle of Hohenheim, which it held in fief of the Counts of Württemberg.
