# Session 2: The whole manuscript, from images

The first session's readings extended to the whole book: four more zodiac names, a seven-planet pharmacy (Merc-, Satur-, Iupit-, Ven-, Sol-, Lun-), a three-part botanical entry formula, Currier's A and B as two registers, an almanac "prediction confirmed", index-of-coincidence figures, and two or three scribal hands.
