[Rubric: Liber tercius]

SOmmo maestro creator veracie
Percui il cielo eterra facti sono
E cioche in essi si contiene egiacie
Conciede per tua gracia e per tuo dono
Che possa seguitar come at[e?] piacie
Con chiaro stile e con aperto suono
A figurar la terra el mare e/ venti
Si che sennabbia boni intendimenti
[Rubric: Zone]
Fannosi quactro plaghe per monstrar[e?]
Isiti della terra et ogni parte
Dalloriente verso il corichale
Si fanno cinque çone inalcunarte
Et octo venti son per navighare
I nomi principali e meçerti etquarte
Questi ne fanno Lume a bene intendere
De qualche parte la cosa dey comprendere
[rubric: deventi]
Zeffiro equel che noi dicam ponente
E coro maestrale e aquilone
Tramontana si chiama e poi seguente
Borea dicto greco euro si pone
Perlo levante e notho in contienente
Syrocho ha nome e seguita affricone
Che meçço el ultimo del chiostro
Libeccio overo garbino che se dice ostro
