Note
The "Historia" is only marked as an independent text from the "Gesta Romanorum" by an initial running over six lines. The text contains (similar to Wien Österreichische Nationalbibliothek Cod. 12449) heavily abridged moralisations on >Canis<, >Aper<, >Puteus< and >Virgilius<, the wording of which is taken from a manuscript of the "Gesta Romanorum". There are numerous unusual spellings (Roth suspects dictation as the reason), and Roth only highlights the form "-rat" instead of "-ret" for verbs. (See Roth 2004, p.90).
