So, aparently this MS (1480?) is a German Book that used french works to make a version of "la belle Maguelonne", and its objective was to teach Germans to learn french. The book has glosses: but they are in Latin! It means that a german that wanted to learn french had to know latin first. Ver overcomplicated stuff, interesting mix of languages. Well, That is all, just wanted to share it.
