Item 7 (Engraving), p. 1 [verso of fol. iii]

[

Three woodcuts pasted into the ms. Two represent days one and two of creation respectively, with the text in Latin, Hebrew, Greek and English. The English text in each case is a rhyming couplet. The other, larger one depicts God as a triangle inside a circle, with the sun and moon on the left and right, above a crescent shape with a figure representing time. Under that is a blank scroll. From the top a rope twines round, creating a frame of 18 lozenge shapes within which are scenes from the Old Testament. Four of the lozenges are blank.
