Opening leaf with the notebook's large letter 'F'
A bold drawn initial 'F' among untranscribed passages of mirror script
This opening leaf is dominated by a large, heavily inked ornamental letter 'F', the siglum that identifies this notebook, set beside a flourished pen stroke. Around and below it run several short passages of Leonardo's right-to-left mirror script, arranged in a block at the upper left, two narrow columns at the upper right, and further lines lower down. None of this writing was transcribed in the source, so its content is not rendered here; further untranscribed text is present on the sheet.

Untranscribed memoranda around the drawn initial 'F'
The leaf carries the notebook's identifying letter 'F' as a large drawn initial, flanked and followed by several short blocks of mirror-script writing. Because the source supplied no transcription, the wording of these notes is not given; they remain untranscribed jottings visible on the page.
