475-480 mm x 350 mm for the older gatherings, 10 lines per page. 475-480 mm x 350 mm for the newer gatherings, 8 lines per page.
The current foliation (from the 17th or 18th cent.) in Arabic numbers has replaced the original foliation in Roman numbers, in order to integrate new gatherings and arrive at a continuous foliation for the whole book.
This book has been strongly revised in the seventeenth or eighteenth century. Several gatherings were integrated in the book and other old gatherings were removed or modified (see, for example, the gathering XIII which corresponds to the change of a quaternion into a binion or the gathering VI that has lost a folio). The book also contains several lacunas easily identifiable thanks to the ancient numbering. Usually, the older gatherings were constituted by four bifolios (quaternion) and the recent ones by three bifolios (ternion). I binion (fols. 2-5), II quaternion (fols. 6-13), III quaternion missing (fols. 14-21), IV quaternion (fols. 22-29), V one bifolio written by a modern hand (fols. 30-31), VI quaternion whose first folio has been replaced by the gathering V (fols. 32-38), VII quaternion whose last folio is missing (fols. 39-45), VIII ternion written by a modern hand (fols. 46-51), IX ternion missing (fols. 52-57), X ternion written by a modern hand (fols. 58-63), XI quaternion whose internal bifolio is missing (fols. 64-71), XII quaternion whose first folio is missing (fols. 72-79), XIII binion (fols. 80-83), XIV quaternion written by a modern hand (fols. 84-91), XV ternion missing (fols. 92-97), XVI ternion written by a modern hand (fols. 98-103), XVII ternion written by a modern hand (fols. 104-109), XVIII ternion written by a modern hand (fols. 110-115), XIX ternion written by a modern hand (fols. 116-121), XX ternion written by a modern hand (fols. 122-127), XXI ternion written by a modern hand (fols. 128-133), XXII ternion written by a modern hand (fols. 134-139), XXIII ternion written by a modern hand (fols. 140-145), XXIV binion written by a modern hand (fols. 146-149), XXV ternion written by a modern hand whose two last folios have been cut (fols. 150-155), XXVI ternion written by a modern hand (fols. 156-161), XXVII binion written by a modern hand (fols. 162-165), XXVIII quaternion? whose four first folios have been cut (fols. 166-169), XXIX quaternion (fols. 170-177), XXX quaternion whose last folio has been cut (fols. 178-184), XXXI gathering written by a modern hand with several folios cut (fols 185-187), XXXII quaternion? whose first folio and three last folios have been cut (fols. 188-191), XXXIII quaternion (fols. 195-202), XXXIV quaternion whose last folio has been cut (fols. 203-209), XXXV quaternion (fols. 210-217), XXXVI quaternion whose six last folios have been cut (fols. 218-225), XXXVII quaternion whose first folio was cut (fols. 226-233)
