Rubric: The table of this buik eftir the ordoure of the alphabett, 1621. [{i}A hand saec. XVIII added a further explanation:{/i}] Nota, the numbers markt at the end of each word denote the chapters each contains.

[{i}List of keyword titles in the index: I have controlled the scribe's indications of chapter numbering within the titles and have corrected them accordingly. I found that the scribe skipped several titles which are present in the volume. I therefore deem that the scribe simply copied a list of the same kind from the ancestor manuscript, without caring about additions which had in the mean time been made to the text. It suggests that the ancestor manuscript may have consisted of loose quires or even loose sheets, and that their alphabetical arrangement was disturbed, so that there ensued disorder in the copy. A comparison to Adv.MS.24.6.3(3) showed that both MSS have exactly the same arrangement of titles.{/i}] Act of adjornall 15, fol. 1r. Advocatioune 9, fol. 3v. Advocattis 10, fol. 4r.
