Hi, Please do not think the transcription was worth doing as what you have been able to interpret is magnificent. This will must have been subject to a bad decay as you can see from the page version I am attaching. Anything that could be gleaned was a huge help. I think you could consider forming a business to do these transcriptions/translations as you are really good at it and there must be many frustrated non latin scholars out there that would swamp you with orders. Again thank you so much
