The following text is a mirror-image bleed-through (ghosting) appearing on this page, likely from a different work or a facing page in a composite volume:

ON THE COMMONWEALTH

OF THE SPAINS original: "DE REPUBLICA HISPANIARVM". In the Early Modern period, "the Spains" (plural) was the standard way to refer to the various kingdoms—such as Castile, Aragon, and Navarre—that were united under the Spanish Crown.

The remainder of the text is illegible due to the mirroring and extreme fading of the ink transfer.

Technical terms present in the mirror-image: Commonwealth/Republic, of the Spains.
