The author, a physician to Queen Maria, draws upon his experiences as he warns young men about women, advising them to remain celibate and to avoid their treachery. The work contains elements of fiction and is not intended as an autobiography. The author seeks throughout the text to draw a contrast between earthly and heavenly love, exemplified by the Virgin Mary. The text is written in rhyme and is divided into four books, each consisting of four parts. The first book deals with the time of youth, the second with marriage, the third with widowhood and the fourth with the ascetic life. The work can also be considered in terms of its broader cultural and historical context as an expression of misogyny common to much of the didactic literature of the late Middle Ages. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
