This also restores the pattern of skin and flesh sides seen in the rest of the manuscript. Since it seems unlikely that a manuscript would be created with four quinternions and a binion, and since there's a clear discontinuity between 42v and 43r, I've also inserted blank folia to bring it up to the same length as the rest of the quires. The first quire is inserted to bring the page count up to the 58 folia (including blank pages) that was recorded for ms. 75 in the 1467 inventory of the d'Este library, which is the only one that it could potentially be. An alternative construction would be a first quire of ten folia and reducing the final quire by two. a LostLost LostLost LostLost LostLost LostLost LostLost LostLost LostLost a Ⅰ 1r1v 2r2v 3r3v 4r4v 5r5v 6r6v 7r7v 8r8v 9r9v 10r10v Ⅰ Ⅱa 11r11v 12r12v 13r13v 14r14v 15r15v 26r26v 27r27v 28r28v 29r29v 30r30v Ⅱa Ⅱb 19r19v 18r18v 16r16v 17r17v 20r20v 21r21v 24r24v 25r25v 23r23v 22r22v Ⅱb Ⅲ 31r31v 32r32v 33r33v 34r34v 35r35v 36r36v 37r37v 38r38v 39r39v 40r40v Ⅲ Ⅳ 41r41v 42r42v LostLost LostLost LostLost LostLost LostLost LostLost 43r43v 44r44v Ⅳ
