By the way, it's the first time I notice such an extensive meats section in a Tacuinum. Maybe it's common, but I haven't found one of this size in other versions yet. (This is complicated by the fact that facsimile printers have apparently tried to corner the Tacuinum market).
There's something about the way this organ meat ("animal hearts" in this case) is hanging in a stretched out, vertical, bi-lobal way...
Looks more like hanging "lungs and trachea" to me versus "animal hearts".
