Transcription Notes:
General note: this page is the same as page 6 but without loose leaf notes inserted. The two transcriptions should be very similar -@siobhanleachman Perhaps on left page above "lobe" there is a fish-like symbol and numeral 5. I've seen the word I guessed as "furcate" (previous guess: truncate) before. Not sure what it is but furcate means forked, so thought maybe? - GigglePop
