Rosette and Circle Diagrams (No Text)
Verso of the quadrature sheet: circles filled with six-petalled 'roses' but no writing
The verso carries no prose—the source records it as 'devoid of writing'—but bears several faint geometric diagrams continuing the recto's study: circles filled with six-petalled rosettes, a trefoil of three interlocking circles at the upper right, a circle inscribed in a square, and a ring of flower-rosettes at the foot. These are the pure figures behind the recto's discussion of dividing circles into equal proportional portions.

Circles divided into six-petalled rosettes
The sheet bears no text but several drawn circles, each subdivided by intersecting arcs into six-petalled 'rose' figures. At the upper right three equal circles overlap into a trefoil, and a large ring of flower-rosettes sits at the foot—the geometric constructions behind the recto's portion-counting.
