f28r Text: the mystic aspects of the dove. The dove's red feet. Illustration: Two excisions on this folio. They would have been two paintings of doves inside a circle inside a square as seen in Ashmole 1511, f39v. In Ashmole, as here, the rubric is squeezed in vertically, up the side of the illustration. On the top right margin are two faint sketches of circles in squares. The cat shown in the lower sketch is like that on f5. This page shows one initial type 2, a quire mark of four 'matchsticks', colour indication in margin (a?); illegible text correction in margin but no corresponding alteration to the text.
