Well I started into a list of all the 7 plus ( I think I am up to 9
sources now) that include Martino Corpus recipes and I realized it is
NOT an e-mail but a short article.
I am away on vacation/Spouse business trip in VEGAS (never been
before WOW!) and I don't have all my sources electronically so I will
work up a list and post next week.
I have manuscript copies of both the Vatican and the Library of
Congress Martino and have spent several hours with the actual Library
of Congress copy and they are similar, but not identical. I will
attempt to out line some of the differences in the above short
article (looks like it is getting longer) but briefly they mostly
relate to scribal abbreviations. They are also from completely
different hands and Vatican is much easier to read.
