Consists of an exposition and discussion of philosophy, mainly Aristotelian. Page 1 of the paginated section (f. 15r) begins with the following inscription: "Philosophia Peripatetica juxta mentem divi Thomae elucubrata rationibus inconcessis et clarissimis nec non invalidissimis Argumentis roborata." This appears to be intended as a heading for the entire work. The text is divided into part I (p. 1-339) and part II (p. 341-465). Also includes a table of contents prepared by Jordan (p. 467-472).
