Notes:
The manuscript contains a prose translation of Virgil’s Eclogue VIII. Also known as Pharmaceutria, Virgil’s Eclogue VIII is one of his ten eclogues. The text opens with a 16-line introduction, followed by two love songs: Damon’ song and Alphesiboeus’s song. Additionally, Eclogue VIII is largely inspired by Theocritus’s Idyll 2.
