Emblems: stalks, a horse's hoof, and a split branch
Punning red-chalk devices with terse mottos
A further inverted red-chalk emblem page built on visual puns. Two stalks labelled 'bene' (good) and 'miglio' (millet) spell the motto 'from good to better', a horse's hoof with a protruding wart is glossed simply 'ants', and a branch split down its length stands for breaking apart an evil union.

Horse's hoof with a wart
