The 4 digestions that the stomach makes of food.
First note that if you drink brandy in the morning and the evening with wine, it removes the phlegm from the top of the stomach and improves the appetite, soothes the stomach and cures bad breath, as much through an effect on the stomach as through the action on the brain.
Note that the first digestion is made in the stomach and it digests the food and the substance of the food is passed to the liver through certain veins which transfer the mixture.
The second digestion is made in the liver and the substance which the stomach has sent to the liver is converted into blood and the liver sends it through the veins.
The third digestion is done in the veins which nourishes the limbs.
The fourth digestion is made in the limbs through the capillary veins.
The excess of the first digestion is the feces which nature sends to the bowels.
The excess of the second digestion is urine which the liver sends to the kidneys. Then the kidneys distill it to the bladder through 2 pores which come from the ureters which are suspended in the flesh.
The excess of the third digestion which is made through the veins is sweat.
The excess of the fourth digestion is the nails and the hair. This is enough for you to know about the secrets of digestion of the stomach.
Prayer against sickness during pregnancy.
'Lord God of the angels before whom the angels stand in great fear, + Amen + Amen + Amen +. Womb of sorrow, womb of flesh, womb of blood and pain, may it go away. It is calling unendingly, just as the pig roars, as the bear murmurs, as the deer jumps. I implore you, womb of sorrow, by the Holy Virgin Mary that you gather up your strands and return to your place where God brought you without hurt to the body. I implore you, womb of sorrow, by the seat of majesty and the throne of heaven. I implore you, womb of sorrow, by the God who causes rain and drops to fall in the days of the world. I implore you, womb of sorrow, by the God who was crucified and his side transfixed with a spear and from his side came blood and water. I implore you, womb of sorrow, by the 9 levels of angels and by the 12 apostles and by the thousand martyrs and confessors and also the virgins and by the four rivers of Paradise, Phison, Tigris, Euphrates and the River Jordan, that flow from Eden. I swear to you by the blessed Mary for health to make your servant well who is not able to continue. Amen + Amen + Amen +
Agios + Agios + Agios + Otheos + Otheos + Otheos + Sanctus + Sanctus + Sanctus + Hervanus + Serphanus + et Qiriacus + End.
' First make the sign of the cross, in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, Amen. Know that this prayer has aided many gentlewomen who have read it every morning and then have carried this continually near them and have stayed free always so the womb has never given them sorrow, through the power of God.... 57

Le 4 digestione del cibo che fa lo stomacho.
Prima nota che se tu beverai l’aqua vita la matina e la sera con vino, ella consumma la flema dela bocha delo stomacho et rende lo apititto, conforta lo stomacho, cura lo fiato fetido, cosi per la parte delo stomacho como per l’arte delo celabro.
Nota che la prima digestione si fa nelo stomaco e li si cose il cibo et la substantia del cibo si passa alo fegato per certe vene le quale se adimandano misaiche.
La 2 digestione si fa inel fegato et la substantia la quale ha mandato lo stomaco al fegato se convertisse in sangue et lo fegato lo manda per le vene.
La 3 digestione si fa inele vene le quale nutrischano li membri.
La 4 digestione si fa neli membri per le vene capilare.
La superfluitade dela prima digestione sie la feccia la quale la natura manda ale budelle.
La superfluitade dela seconda digestione sie la urina la quale lo fegato manda ali rognoni e alora li rognoni la distillano ala vissicha per 2 porri li quali se dimandano horaides li quali sono appensi in la carne.
La superfluitade dela terza digestione la quale si fa per le vene sie lo sudore.
La superfluitade dela quarta digestione sie le oungie et li capelli. Et questo ti basta circha ala digestione delo stomaco a sapere tali secreti.
Oratione contra al male di madre.
‘Dominus deus angelorum ante quam stant angeli cum magno tremore + amen + amen + amen +. Mater doloris, pulposa matrix, matrix sanguinaria et brantenaria ne auferat dicant iugiter sicut porcus mugiet, murmurat sicut ursus, saltat sicut cervus. Coniuro te matrix doloris per sanctam mariam verginem ut collighas crinus tuos et ravertare ad locum tuum ubi te deus condidit sine iracundie corporis. Coniuro te matrix doloris per sedem maiestatis et per tronum celorum. Coniuro te matrix doloris per illum deum qui pluit et fluit ghuttas et dies secculi. Coniuro te matrix doloris per illum deum qui crucifixus fuit et lancea transforatus et de latere eius exiuit sanguis et aqua. Coniuro te matrix doloris per novem ordinis angelorum et per duodecim apostolos et per mille martires et confessores atque vergines et per quatuor flumina paradisi, seon, tigris, heufrates et flumen jordane quas colores faciunt algeris. Adjuro te per beatam mariam ut salus ut salva fiat famulus ut famulam tuam quam durare non potest + amen + amen + agios + agios + agios + otheos + otheos + otheos + sanctus + sanctus + sanctus + hervanus + serphanus + et quiriacus + finis.’ Et prima li farai il segno di croce, in nomine patris et fili et spiritus sancti, amen. Et sapi che questa oratione la adoperata de molte gentildone l’anno letta ogni matina et l’anno poi portata con nesso loro continuamente adosso et sempre sono statte franche che la madre non li a mai datta noia per la virtu de dio.
