Firenze, BML, Ashburnham 53 (no. 9 in the 1887 Florence catalogue) on fol. 1-14vb it contains a fragment of the first part of the Collectio Tripartita (elsewhere described as excerpts from Pseudo-Isidore: Kéry, Collections p. 106), followed by a copy of Anselm (A'). Brett describes the Tripartita fragment as follows:

The Preface, and [Tripartita A] 1. 1 - 20. 1, breaking off in mid-sentence on the first line of the verso of the leaf, leaving the rest of the column blank. On fol. 15ra the capitulatio for Anselm of Lucca Bk I begins in the same hand. The rubrics and capitulations for 1. 15 onwards were never inserted.

Not to be confused with the manuscript described as "Ashburnham 53" by ARCA. This is manuscript no. 53 in the Florence catalogue (I codici ashburnhamiani pp. [https://archive.org/details/p1icodiciashburnha01bibluoft/page/79/mode/1up 79-83).
