Fol. 2v:

A man holding a feather and a bowl searches for leaven in a room. Below, from a window, a woman sweeps the walls with a broom. In the cellar below, a youth sweeps between barrels using a feather and a bowl.

Inscribed at the top:

לאור הנר ולא לאור האבוקה/ צריכי' לעשות בדיקה

“Bt the light of a candle, and not a torch (TB, Pesahim 7b), one has to make the search.”

At the bottom:

במרתף בודק העליונות/ והשורות התחתונות

“In the cellar one searches the upper as well as the lower shelves (TB, Pesahim 8b).”

A man pointing at three ravens feeding in a yard.

Inscribed:

בחצר אין צורך/ מפני שהעורבים מצויין שם בארך

“In the yard there is no need (to search), because the ravens are found there at length.” (TB, Pesahim 8b).
