The importance of the original Dee record is as follows.
If, when printing notes, they translated “in 40” instead of “in 4Q” (which is very similar to each other), then it turns out that 4 Quire lay on the table (not connected!).
In VMS, according to the Quire marking, 3 “notebooks” are missing (12, 16, 18).
You tell me, that the quantity does not match!! .. However, take a look at Q20. It has sheets 111 and 114 with obvious signs of deformation. Most believe that this is a defect in the manufacture of leather. However, this may be a deformation as a result of exposure to fire. Moreover, there are folds (wrinkles) on these pages, which were obviously formed after the text was written. This could occur as a result of extinguishing the fire with water.
That is, these two bifolios (as well as 111 bifolio, with a slight deformation in the middle of the sheet) were in a fire. The rest of the sheets were restored (?), and the whole notebook is hemmed into a manuscript.
