Designed by Pietro Paulo Tozzi, published by Libraria del Giesu, Padua.

Design is composed of a central rectangle upon which a variation of the alphabet is printed and one line of calligraphic text. At the beginning and end of all the text are twisting linear motifs. Surrounding this middle section on the top, left, and right side are rounded triangular motifs ornamented with different foliage patterns; along that bottom side is a border divided into squares that are ornamented with a floral pattern.
