Summary (also from the previous page)

The document appears to be a trade order list from 1600s Holland to Japan, listing various goods requested by different Japanese officials:

For Sickendonne, the order included black goatskin leather, squirrel pelts, rare Sumatran bird feathers, snake fat, caiman oil, mastic, Spanish steel, turpentine oil, a fire-hose model, saffron, surgical needles, razors, emery, indigo, a mapmaker's compass, and various furs.

For Ando Oijckiosamma, square Dutch earthenware with handles and decorative crawling creatures was ordered.

For the Lord of Owari, crystal glasses and goblets were requested.

For Mathendeijro's son, large coral pieces were ordered.

For Inaba and Snaba Minosamma, carpentry compasses, a telescope, and two globes (one celestial, one terrestrial) were listed.

For Todo Daijkack Samma, the order included:

  • 3 pairs of turkeys (male and female)
  • 6 cassowary birds
  • 6 long-armed baboons
  • 2 Persian sheep
  • 3 cockatoos
  • Various rare birds from Java and other Indian regions

For Quiemons, the list included red clay pens, scented shaving soap balls, letter-wood planks, Italian white plumes, English knives, Dutch earthenware dishes with colored paintings, spectacles for different age groups (20 and 60 years), telescopes for government officials, Dutch horn lanterns, and large Dutch earthenware dishes. Portuguese-style iron storm helmets were also mentioned as the Dutch ones were found too heavy.
