The inscription above Zurich's Choleric scholar (in der zit var) led me to You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view., containing two papers about Laufenberg's Regimen:
Bernhard Schnell: Heinrich Laufenbergs 'Regimen'
Marlis Stähli: Die Handschrift Ms. C 102 b der Zentralbibliothek Zürich
I have only examined the passages about Zurich's Choleric, but I noticed other interesting parts. E.g. at p.33 there are images of the different watermarks found in the manuscripts.
The meaning of the short inscription is still partially unclear to me (something like "in the time ...?" I don't know about "var").
Machine translation of some passages by Stähli:
The five lines mentioned by Stähli:
Edited machine translation:
[The Cholerics] are subtle in their learning.
With women they have joy
And easily fall into sorrow.
Wisdom and also much cleverness
Are often told to us by them.

Machine translation of some passages by Stähli:
Quote:The author sits in his writing room, on a stool with a cushion, holding a quill in his right hand and a knife in his left. Above the writing desk is a scroll with the inscription "In der zit var". The scholar's room is separated by a curtain. Behind the author is a chest, perhaps for storing books. On the shelf above the desk with the writing table is a book, next to it several bottles and containers, which indicate the presence of a physician.
The author’s depiction [... illustrates] verses 2190–2194, which characterize the choleric as a scholar.
The five lines mentioned by Stähli:
Laufenberg wrote:Vnd sindt subtyle uff lere
By wyben hant sü fröide
Vnd vallend licht in leyde
Witze vnd ouch vil kündikeit
Ist vns dike von In geseit

And easily fall into sorrow.
Wisdom and also much cleverness
