A rectangular white slip of paper is pasted onto the page. It features a handwritten Rv in the upper left corner and a central oval emblem. The emblem depicts a pelican in her piety, feeding her young with blood from her breast, set against a blue sky with gold rays of light. The pelican in her piety is a traditional alchemical and Christian symbol of self-sacrifice and the process of revitalization. The bird stands on a golden crescent moon, which in turn rests upon a white cube. The front face of the cube is decorated with three red roses. The cube and roses likely refer to the Rosicrucian tradition or the perfection of the material soul. The entire scene is enclosed within a green oval frame, which is surrounded by the circular inscription: Hermetic Philosophy original: "PHILOSOPHIA HERMETICA".

original: "PHILOSOPHIA HERMETICA"; this refers to the tradition of esoteric knowledge attributed to Hermes Trismegistus, often associated with alchemy and spiritual transformation.
