Pavia Ms 75 has an unusual pen drawing with three shields.
That on the left has a black eagle spreading its wings above the Sun, Moon and star set above a bank of clouds. The central shield is quartered with columns, and lions standing at the side of a precipice, while the shield on the right has a crown with two feathers.
The text is a practical recipe, difficult to read as the Latin is contracted, with what appears to be some works in Greek, but it begins "Recipe nine ounces [...Greek ?...] filosophic."
