Roma, Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale, Ms. Sess. 64 (2086) is a copy of the Panormia (siglum: Rb).

saec. XII2/2; formerly S. Croce. Double columns with elegant line drawings in major initials.

Panormia on fo. 1-46; has Preface, capitulatio, 1-2.125 med. only (end of quire). Many rubrics in main text, more and fuller ones in margin, appendix by second hand. These are largely unrecorded in the apparatus of Brett's Panormia edition. The text rubrics and inscriptions end with 2.59; marginal rubrics in one annotating hand continue to 2.90; a second continues to 2.104. In general the quality of the script declines as the book goes on. Text shows some convergence with Orléans, BM, 222 (Oa), but is full of error, little of it recorded in the apparatus.
