The scheme of design of the reverse side of the bow-case is
precisely the same as on the obverse, save for the following
variations and additions:

of hound to the two slughis; no wild beasts in field.
L. and R. panels of veneered barks: - the ibex are spotted;
and a new kind of hornless antelope is depicted - its species
is unknown to me.
