Inventory of garments in the chest at the monastery
Cloaks, doublets and hose in taffeta, velvet and satin, some belonging to Salai
Folio 4v lists clothing kept 'in the chest at the monastery': taffeta and velvet, a burnous, several short cloaks and capes, doublets of satin and camlet, pairs of hose, caps, a hat of scarlet, a Reims-linen shirt worked in the French fashion, and a tapestry door-hanging. Several pieces are noted as belonging to Salai, and one French-cut cape is said to have been Duke Valentino's. A blue Biblioteca Nacional stamp sits at the upper left of the otherwise blank leaf.

Garments in the chest at the monastery
The inventory runs from taffeta and a velvet lining through a burnous, a dark-purple cape with wide facings and a velvet hood, doublets of purple and crimson satin, hose, rose-coloured caps, a scarlet hat and a Reims-linen shirt, ending with a tapestry door-curtain.
Clothes of Salai and a cape of Duke Valentino
Several pieces are marked as Salai's — a French-laced short cloak, a grey Flemish cloak and a doublet with black velvet sleeves — and a French-style cape is recorded as having belonged to Duke Valentino.
