A horizontally oriented manuscript page on aged paper features dense columns of hand-written script in black and red ink. Two vertical red stripes divide a central block from narrower side columns. Three solid red circles are spaced across the center: one on the far left, one in the middle, and one on the far right. Fine script lines fill the bottom margin beneath the main text blocks.
