Cycles and Processes

It is unclear what is being described in the labels from 77r but one can infer possibly reference of menstruation cycle and Sanitary napkins.

Looking at the first few words of the middle paragraph we have three words with several different possible meanings and the repetition of the phonetic: “Fo-thiedin” or “Fo-teigh(in)”:

Following my linguistic approach, the first line in the center paragraph above reads:

Extending in a certain direction[heating, moving] under-inset homespun cloth under-moult little rag loop rigging[leveling, smoothing] both at a sharp angle extending under, returning under

Possibly referring to a sanitary napkin.
