The article of Leopold Zatocil is online (German language) as a pdf-file
One gets it, if one searches for keyword "SpisyFF_131-1968-1_3.pdf"
The text from Olmütz wasn't known before this article.
The author sees a relation to the lot book with the 32 animals ("Cod. pal. germ. 7").
Also he notes the Bernardus Sylvestris texts in the context (one version was presented in this thread). The author notes ... "London addit. ms. 25435, 16 Bl. 14.-15. Jahrh; Berlin, ms. germ. fol. 563; Cod. pal germ. 3, 16 bl."
... with "die allesamt als deutsche Übersetzungen und Bearbeitungen des dem zu Beginn des 12. Jhts. zu Utrecht lebenden Bernardus Sylvester zugeschriebenen lat. Punktierbuchs anzusehen sind"). All 3 are seen as German translations based on Bernardus Sylvester.
Cod. pal. germ. 3 is online as "Mondwahrsagebuch" c. 1400

Bolte knew about "Cod. pal. germ. 7" (32 animals), but kept his contribution to it very short, so that Zatocil assumes, that Bolte hadn't seen it.
Zatocil expresses his opinion, that the lot book group of Bernardus Sylvester belongs to another line of lot book development than the
Heidelberg and Olmütz versions. He gives a vague relation to the Socrates Basileus group.
Zatocil starts to describe the Olmütz version. At the begin are entries about earlier owners of the book.
The text has a handwritten addition from the year 1861 together with 4 old papers with astrological content :
Somebody noted on this papers, that the book was written in 1327 by an old astrologer in Holomouc (= Olmütz). The 4 papers and the book are claimed to have been made around the same time. It's written, that "Papa" (his/her father) has gotten the book from a freemason.
My own idea: Perhaps the papers included an horoscope, which allowed to conclude on the date 1327.
Then follows the description (page 23 - 26 of the pdf) ... I quote the last page with the row of 32 animals:
The row in the
Heidelberg version is ...

I compared them. If I'm not in error, there are only 3 differences between the animals (beside various differences in the writing forms) at the position 3, 4 and 5 (only the positions are exchanged). In other words. It's more or less identical, at least in this part.

Zapocil starts at page 141 a report to DAS LATEINISCHE WAHRSAGEBUCH WENZELS IV .
I guess, I'll later report to this.
