[Commentary:
The numbers in the table at the top of the page are, from left to right: units, lengths, triangular numbers, triangular-pyramidal numbers, and so on.
The table in the centre of the page repeats the first and third columns from the table at the top, but now the triangular numbers are written in multiplicative form, thus,6=3×41×2.
The third table gives all the rows in multiplicative form, thus in the seventh 84=7×8×91×2×3.
The final row gives general formulae for the nth row.
See also page 1 of the 'Magisteria' (Add MS f. ), for which this is possibly a draft.
