# INDEX

The index continues with an exploration of birthmarks of the nostrils and their mystical significance, the indications of a snub nose, and the interpretation of dreams, moral lessons, and the "signature" of the nose in plants. It examines the symmetry of the nose and those known as the "Nasicae." Discussions follow regarding human nature and the specific locations where shipwrecked sailors were sacrificed. The text addresses the etymology and causes of birthmarks (naevi) and their relevance to physiognomy, alongside mythological figures like the Nereids and Neptune. Included are details on Neptune’s various images, the origin and nature of his horses, and his many transformations. It also covers the etymology of the term for "grandson," the fact that severed nerves do not regenerate, their origins and pairings, nerve diseases, and a case of recovery from paralysis. Additional entries discuss the moral doctrine of the nerves, the people called "Nervae," the death of Nero, and descriptions of the Nigritians. The Nile is a major focus, specifically its flooding, its symbolic imagery, the hieroglyphics associated with its rising, and the use of the Nilometer. Also included are the metamorphosis of Nisus, the nature of nobility and its signs among the Athenians, the transformation of the owl and its symbolic presence in the statue of Aesculapius, and the question of neuter nouns in Hebrew. The entries touch upon the etymology of "bastard," tales of a dead stepmother’s vengeance, and what is described as the "monstrous" love of a stepmother for her stepson. Finally, it considers the symbol of silence in numbers, the use of finger gestures to represent numbers in statuary, and rare coins—including those depicting body parts, soldiers, riders, chariots, and various human forms—before concluding with the anatomy of the female labia and the procedure of nymphotomy.

The section for the letter O begins with obedience as signified by the ear, the condemnation of obesity, and notable instances of forgetfulness. It describes the people known as the "Obrippi" and the duties of a midwife. A significant portion of the index is dedicated to the eyes: their etymology, the characteristics of a woman's eye, their mystical and worldly symbolism, and the comparison of the eye to the soul. It details the meaning of hollow eyes, the eyes of lions, the mystical role of the pupils, why humans have two eyes, their anatomy, diseases, related dreams, acute vision, and their signatures in plants. It also covers the occurrence of multiple eyes in fetuses and the underlying causes of such conditions. Further entries discuss the occiput, the personification of "Opportunity," and the description and illustration of the monstrous campion plant (Ocymastrus). The text questions whether odors can provide nourishment and describes the most pleasing duties. It lists various uses for oils, including those derived from the human skull, distilled from excrement, "oil-wine," and white lily oil, as well as the miraculous increase of oil. Other subjects include the Onocentaur, the "Onoselli" and a girl born from them, the nature of the pelican, and how righteous actions are represented by the hand. The index also features an icon of "Operation," the remarkable abilities of a man born without hands, the snake-born Ophogeni, the snake-eating Ophiophagi, the Ophiomachus lizard, and remedies for eye diseases. It concludes with the figures of Opiter and the Orchitheini, the "Bird-man" (Ornithanthropos), and the iconography and myths of Orpheus, including his legendary descent into the Underworld.
