Text columns 9 and 10 (sheet no. 2) surrounded by a decorative painted border.

In the lower margin, below panel no. 9, four figures are depicted. The scene represents one of the fights between the Jews and their enemies but it is difficult to determine which particular verse of the Megillah is illustrated here (Es. 9:5-12).

In the lower margin, below panel no. 10, is depicted a group of men and women who are looking at the gallows with the bodies of Haman's ten sons (Es. 9:14) which is incorporated into the text column above.

In the spaces between text panels, there are (from the right to the left) ornament and figures of standing Jews in the clothing typical for the 17th and 18th centuries; one of them can represent Mordecai.
