Original source (English)

To have wooll in stead of Hayres, foretels long sicknes and fantasies, and t [illegible passage] e itch. Also if having this wooll on his head he shall think that it is naturall unto him, if the hayrs seeme to be changed into any other thing, we must guesse accordingly; that is, according to the thing whereunto we think them changed. To seeme to be without hayre about the face, betokeneth sudden shame, hindrance of present affairs. But to see the hinder part of the Head in that sort is poverty, and ill luck in [illegible passage] age. If any one hath the right side of his Head shaved and naked he shall lose all his male kindred, and if he have done, he shall sustain hurt. If contrariwise the left side of his head be without hayr, it is losse of Co [illegible passage] ns and allyes. For the Head signifyeth the kindred, the right side the male, the left the female, and so through all the body. To have all the hinder part of the Head naked is good for him which goes to law, for him that is fearfull▪ for him that is shut up and detained by force, for he shal flie and escape, noting that one cannot catch him by the hayr f [illegible passage] ying.
