An inverted sign of Venus ‘a’. This sign is also on the chest of the horse ‘b’. The man stands on a board ‘e’, on which a sigil and the word ‘Padous’ is supposed to be. He holds a bunch of herbs ‘d’ and a sickle ‘c’. Another board with sigils ‘f’.
The term ‘padous’ has something to do with gnomes/pixies. ‘Nopa Padous’ is jused as warding against them.
