In the hypothesis that the VM is a medical compendium, what is each section?
#17
Ah, I remember this MS, it has one of the lobsters with legs on the tail, labelled "canter" instead of "cancer". The presence of this style of lobster alone is already a connection to the VM. There are a number of closely related MSS, see: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.

On the presence of alchemy in the VM, I have no objection if it is as part of a "Medizinisch-naturwissenschaftliche Sammelhandschrift". If I understand correctly, this would be a common way to include alchemy in a 15thC work.
