[Trinity] Questions about Trinity MS script
#50
There's another large Diascorides quote on f.85v top. The name of the herb in the "nomen.." phrase is not visible due to damage, but I think it is anagallum, since this returns in the first sentence.

   

An attempt, expect mistakes  Wink :
Certain authors confirm that anagallum is herba venti. Diascorides agrees with them and says that this herb (per se quod ita??) is called like that because its leaves are always moving like the trembling of leaves on a tree, and because in the wind they move and tremble. Therefore it is called herba venti instead of ??? anagallum.
