Notes on line 32:

The first three leters in this line are partially lost to abrasion. However, the reading is reasonably certain. If so, this line shows a common mistake made by this scribe: the confusion of the letters t and d (the scribe has written quot for quod). Elsewhere in this manuscript, such errors are corrected by the later editor, but this one slipped by uncorrected.

Medea verse 691:

The manuscript reads:

et vile telum est, ima quot tellus creat;

The standard modern text reads:

et vile telum est, ima quod tellus creat;
