Item. The hereafter written new Zettel was created and set down by master Martin Siber and is pulled from many master techniques and is separated and set down in six courses

And in the Zettel the ox and the plow and the part cut are not like in the first Zettel of the book. Rather, it is another interpretation.

Now here begins the forward and lessons of the Zettel, thereafter the six courses.
