  Yeah, passing out gold coins, like they were cookies. And the other two guys are wondering, 'How do I top that?'
  
  It should also be noted that the provenance for this text [Paris, c. 1410] is the same as BNF Fr. 565, which is closely tied to the VMs Cosmos.

  I'm sure someone has thought about this before, and it plays to my own theory about a Padua link, but could the central rosette be a representation of the the Basilica of St Anthony in Padua...? It has domed rooves and Padua was surrounded by canals and quays..

  When you remove the colour, it looks to me like a crown full of stars, which I agree looks religious. But the absence of religious elements elsewhere is puzzling. Unless it is Augustinian, which would take us back to Padua, as St Anthony was an Augustinian, and the ceiling of the Basilica is full of stars...

  I see most of the non-plant pages as being religious.  It is a mixture of medicine and religion.  That is how they did things back then.  I see the text as being built out of religious beliefs.
  
  From God/Heaven in the center of the Rosette Page, I see the Light of God Powering the Universe (Air, Fire, Water, Earth).
