David,
there are a couple of points that one can be reasonably certain about:
- You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. is really the end of the MS. (As a less certain consequence, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. is likely to be the start of the section comprised by the last quire).
- the sheets of the MS were stacked in the wrong order before the folio numbers were written
- there really was another bifolio in quire 20 that is now missing
Because of the second point, one cannot be sure that the present order of the folios in quire 20 is the one that was intended by the MS author. Arguments what was the correct order are certainly speculative.
