Da baruti infra terra una giornata

Che neuna di magior antiquitade

La focie di soldino assai famosa

[Image: Lower margin, a map of the Middle East, oriented with North at the top, extends from İskenderun to the Red Sea, drawn in brown ink. The River Jordan (label: fiume jordano) (colored green) flows from a range of hills (colored grey-brown) and connects the Sea of Galilea (label: mar de galilea) and the [Dead Sea?] (label: lago de sodoma). At the upper left Damascus (label: damasco.) appears as a group of 11 towers within a city wall. At the bottom center are Jerusalem (label: jerusalem), a cluster of 3 domes surrounded by 7 towers and a city wall and nearby Mout Zion (label: sion). The only other structure is the monastery of Saint Catherine (label: sancta k[a]tarina.) on Mount Sinai (label: monte sinai) at the far right. Other inland towns named are: Nazareth (label: nazaret) and Bethlehem (label: betelem). Regional place names are: Galilee (label: galilea), Samaria (label: samaria) and Judea (label: iudea). At the bottom of the page, the Mediterranean coast features the following ports, from north to south (left to right): İskenderun (label: alexandretta), [?] (label: soldino.), [Latakia/Laodiceia?] (label: la lecha.), Tartus (label: tortosa), Tripoli (label: Tripoli.), Beirut (label: baruti.), Sarepta/Zarephath (label: Saretta.), Acre (label: acri.), Caesarea (label: cesaria), Joppa (label: joppon.), Ashkelon (label: arsalona.), Gaza (label: gaza), and [El Arish?] (label: larissa).]
