Looks like a sketch of a sonata. Begins reasonably enough, in C clef on lowest line, though looks like Bflat missing from key sig. After double barline, looks like Italian-style written out ornaments, but then goes into 3/4. Below sketches is another passage (now in treble clef?) written ‘passage’

Looks like a piece based on the passamezzo antico, but the melody has a lop-sided 7-bar structure, to which only some of the variations correspond. After the final double barline, there is what looks like a sketch for another variation.

Unusual set of variations. Looks like it is in Scottish style, with the tune not unlike the rhythmic structure of a Scots Measure, and variation patterns similar to Scottish setting. However, built on an unusual harmonic structure (C-a-C-a-C-D-G-D-G).

Looks like a trio sonata movement written in short score, or could just about be a sonata for solo violin and bass, with lots of double stopping in top part.
