[At the top of the page right side up in good calligraphy, thin nib:] Greg Arundell [a line is drawn beneath the name]

[Second line, bookhand style, something scratched out (I can't read it), scratched out with the same strokes and nib as wrote Greg Arundel]

[Bottom of page, upside down:] Greg Arundell [same hand and style as at the top of the page, also with a decorative underscore. Next to it, a student has copied the same name with heavy strokes:] Greg Arund [the word runs into the margin of the book, there isn't enough room to finish.] [Following, the teacher writes out two lines of text and a student copies them.] [Following, the words:] by me J A of the pish [parish?] of Exxxe [indecipherable] [Below, scrawled at a slant:] and also [Below that, in large calligraphic letters:] William Stawear[?] In an open space between & to the right of the two previous names is a set of 13 lower-case e's (like backward 3's) arranged in the shape of the same letter. To the left of them are the initials JEe in a calligraphic flourish. Below is a thick little calligraphic W.]

[Between William's last name (upside down) & John's first name (right side up) are some practice sigils I can't interpret]

[In the middle of the page, right side up, in a strong hand:] John Arundell [pen design like a Celtic knot] Eius Liber [as if copying a bookplate] [Below:] Anno domo ~ 1659

[Upside down below Anno domo:] William Scanen [underlined many times]
