Are the illustrations in 66r and 116v related?

                p/γ 

    ren               mus(s)

               mel

ren - a kidney
mel - honey
mus (Latin) - a mouse, muss (German) - pulp (as it was mentioned), but also You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. (German) - otium, rest. 
Therefore I think, the text relates to the picture (the sick figure with a honey poultice at rest/ with a honey pulp plaster) and, possibly, relates to the f116v marginalia and images.


Honey was sometimes spelled "mel" rather than melle but it doesn't fit as well with "mus" as does "mel" for flour. Mus mel could be porridge, something that is frequently mentioned in medieval remedies.

Mel and ren - in Latin. 
I think it is not obligatory to be only one language, German or Latin, as much as on the f116v.
