Weights suspended from angled rods
A red-chalk apparatus of balls hung from jointed arms, drawn inverted on the page
A faint red-chalk drawing, oriented upside down on the leaf, shows a roughly symmetrical frame of jointed rods with small balls at their ends, describing weights suspended from angled arms. A separate small circle sits at the lower left. No transcribed text accompanies the sketch; the cataloguer records only the caption, and further untranscribed marks may be present.

Weights hung from angled arms
Small spheres, standing for weights, hang from the ends of rods that meet at jointed hubs to form an angled framework. The arrangement studies how suspended loads balance about their supports. The drawing is set inverted relative to the page.
Jointed rod-and-ball assembly
The rods radiate from central junctions and carry balls at their tips, sketched as a built assembly rather than an abstract figure. A small separate circle at the lower left may note a wheel or pivot. The caption reads the whole as weights suspended from angled rods.
