End-leaf with mirror-script notes and a numerical table
Faded prose in Leonardo's reversed hand above a short column of figures
This much-worn leaf carries several lines of Leonardo's mirror-script arranged in two prose blocks, with a heading line ruled off from the paragraph beneath it. In the lower right a short numerical table sets words against figures in stacked rows. Two inked ownership stamps of the Institut de France are impressed on the page. Because the bundle supplies no transcription, the writing is not translated here, and further untranscribed text is present on the sheet.

Mirror-script prose in two blocks
Leonardo's reversed cursive fills the upper half of the leaf as a short headed note ruled off above a longer paragraph. The ink is faded and unevenly preserved, so the sense is not recovered here. The bundle provides no transcription of these lines.
Short numerical table, lower right
A compact table in the lower right pairs written words with numerals in stacked rows, closed off by a ruled line. It reads as a brief tally or list of figures rather than continuous prose. No transcription is supplied for the entries.
