The caterpillar, which by means of assiduous care is able to weave
round itself a new dwelling place with marvellous artifice and fine

wings, with which it rises towards Heaven.

Footnote: Two notes are underneath this text. The first: 'nessuna
chosa e da ttemere piu che lla sozza fama' is a repetition of the
first line of the text given in Vol. I No. 695.
The second: faticha fugga cholla fama in braccio quasi ochultata c
is written in red chalk and is evidently an incomplete sentence.]
