Fol. 61: Instructions on how to defend a fortress against its enemy, seen on the right: by hanging a large wickerwork rectangle from the walls and moving it to and fro (cf. fol. 30v); by preparing large baskets of stones, earth and ashes to throw at the enemy; and by hurling the enemy down from their ladders when they climb up, using long poles. Inscribed in Hebrew and Yiddish:

Below the fortress, on the right:

זיי זול ון וויידן/ גמאכט זיין/ און זול עיינש בוש ברייט חענקן/ ון דער מוייארן און זול שוויבן/ חעב און דר

תעשה סלים גדולים תמלא אותם/ עם אבנים וחול ואפר דש חעלט די/ שוייש אוף.

On the left: מן זול עיין רו מוייאר מאכן אוף עיינר/ שטייפן ווי עיין שנעל דש מן נוייארט/ דרף די שטייפא אוייש ציהן.

At the bottom:

מן זול בייאלין האן אין דער האנט/ מיט לנגין שטילין און ווער אוף/ די מוייאר שטייגיט דש מן/ אין חער אב הוייא און אוייך/ די לייטרן.
