# Description:
#
#   The page is dominated by a circular diagram, surmounted by a single 
#   paragraph of text (4 lines).
#
#   The diagram is framed by three rings of text, delimited by four thin
#   circles. All three rings are broken at 11:30 by two doubled radial strokes.
#   There is a notched-square design on the center ring, between these two
#   strokes.
#
#   At the center of the diagram there is a cicle of small "pearls", containing
#   a woman's(?) face, with crossed eyes and a bored or displeased look. The
#   space between the face and the pearls consists of two crescent moons with
#   touching tips, painted yellow, which could be hair.
#
#   This small circle is surrounded by elongated triangular spikes, painted
#   solid dark red, forming a 12-pointed star. Each spike ends un a small round
#   bulb, from which there exits a thin double line that ends at the text ring.
# 
#   The gaps between consecutive spikes of the star are filled by kite-shaped
#   regions, with the sharp corner pointing inward. The result is another "fat"
#   star with 12 chubby points and finely serrated outlines. Each "kite" is
#   split along its diagonal. The clockwise half of each kite is painted solid
#   dark blue (at some places overruning the dark red of the spikes). The other
#   half is filled with little sepia stars.
#
#   Here is the count of stars per sector, starting at 00:30. The header 
#   is the o'clock position minus 30 minutes, i.e. "10" = "10:30".
#
#     00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 
#     -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
#     07 09 12 08 11 11 08 09 08 10 12 09 
#
#   The space between the "fat star" and the outer circle is divided into 24
#   sectors, containing alternately a label (unit µ{S}) and one or two stars
#   with yellow cores. (The "star" sectors are those aligned with the starry
#   half-kites.) The star counts, starting at 00:30, are
#   
#     00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 
#     -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- 
#      1  1  2  2  2  2  2  2  2  2  2  1 
#
#   The last star at 11:00, just before the break in the 
#   text rings, seems to be attached to the inner boundary of
#   the rings by a small platform of some sort.
#
#   Rene [04 Apr 1999] reports that "the cross[???] near bottom right seems
#   like pencil."
#
#   In the SE corner there is a mark resembling a "9" with "ng" superscript.
#
# Comments:
#
#   The central face probably represents the moon.
#
#   The mark in the SE corner is almost certainly the quire number,
#   "9th" in abbreviated Latin.
