Collection of 205 poems, including five repeats, mostly by unnamed authors. Includes two poems by Luis de Camões (f. 45v-46v) and others by Luis de León, Fray Pedro de Ledesma and Mateo Rosas de Oquendo. A sonnet concerning the death of a king (f. 68v) probably refers to Philip II. Also includes medical recipes (f. 11v-12r) and a partial index (f. 43r).
