“Partitur autem totale opus ad honorem Sanctæ Trinitatis in tres libros. Nam sicut infirmanti corpori . . . . tria impertiri curamus: primo, syrupum ad præviam dispositionem; . . . . secundo, congruam medicinam quæ morbum expellat; . . . . tertio, ad conservandam sanitatem debitum vitæ regimen. . . . Sic conformiter continet liber primus dispositionem quasi syrupum, etc.”

“In the year 1321, I had an audience of our lord the pope, and presented him two books on the recovery of the Holy Land, and safety of the faithful; one bound in red, the other in yellow. At the same time I brought under his notice four geographical maps, one of the Mediterranean Sea, another of the land and sea, the third of the Holy Land, the fourth of Egypt.”
