Contains text of a work entitled De casibus conscientiae (f. 1r-364v). There is no indication of the identity of the author. Also contains the text of Pope Clement VIII's bull Pastoralis Romani Pontificis vigilantia (commonly referred to as In coena Domini; f. 366r-378v). This appears to have been copied from a version printed in 1596, though the heading bears the date 1598. Also contains a commentary on Clement's bull, titled De casibus reservatis, et nominatim de iis qui reservatur in bulla Coenae domini.
