1. Come sta il paese al presente, by Jo.Andrea.
2. [Secondo l'aricordo dicta me Christoforo Sabadin]
3. Secondo l'aricordo de Mastro Zuane Carera
4. Two untitled maps of Venice on a single sheet, both identically showing the Lido and the surrounding area with its rivers, but with different schemes for the river Brenta
5. Secondo l'oppinione dicta Mo Paulo da Castello e mo Domenico dalla Bacho a mo Zan Iaco di Alberti
6. Secondo l'oppinion del Marco Alvise Cornaro da Padoua

These manuscript maps record scientifically and minutely the details of the various proposals for canals, changes in water levels and diversion of rivers and other changes in the hydrography of the region between Venice, Padua and Treviso, particularly as they affected the delta of the Brenta.
