The treatise lists nine miraculous springs around the world and interprets their qualities spiritually in terms of characteristics of the passion.

Verum est, quod voces iste sunt valde infeste pacientibus dolorem in cerebro. Spiritualiter talis fons est latus Domini nostri Ihesu Christi, de quo exit vox dulcis pro salute omnium, qui pie compaciantur marterio Christi. Vnde Canticorum secundo: Sonet uox tua in auribus nostris. Sed non est dulcis pro redempcione crudelium Iudeorum, qui paciuntur morbum fatuitatis in cerebro, Danielis 13: Fatui filij Israel non iudicantes nec quod verum est cognoscentes. [fol. 83ra]
5. 83va-86vb [On Flowers and their Spiritual Interpretation]. 83va [Inc.]: Quasi flos egreditur et conteritur Iohannis 13o. Ecce enim breuis in volantibus apis et inicium... - ...86vb [Expl.]: Quod ipse Dei filius nobis concedat qui cum etcetera.
