Decked floats, a segmented rod, and a battlement profile
Two long decks on rollers with hoisting gear, a telescoping rod, and a crenellated wall section.
The editorial note states that this leaf was invisible before restoration and bears no writing or drawing, yet several drawings are in fact present while no writing appears. Across the top run two long decked structures resting on rollers, linked by a looping cord and served by a small hoist and triangular frames, suggesting floating bridge sections or rolling carriages. A long segmented, telescoping rod crosses the center diagonally, and a stepped, crenellated wall profile is drawn at the foot of the sheet.

Decked floats on rollers
Two long horizontal decks are supported on rows of rollers or wheels and connected by a looping cord, with triangular A-frames rising from them. They read as floating bridge sections or heavy rolling platforms.
Hoist and long segmented rod
A small windlass or hoist is drawn at the head of the connecting cord, and a long tapering rod built of telescoping segments with a collar crosses the center of the sheet diagonally.
Crenellated wall profile
At the foot of the sheet a stepped, battlemented cross-section shows a row of merlons and embrasures above a broad base, in the manner of a fortification wall profile.
