Description:

at the fourth hour in the morning, this comet was seen for five quarters of an hour in Westerreich, then disappeared again. It was very long and yellow-red, similar to a mingled colour of blood. At the front the head like a bent arm, as if it had a sword in its hand and wanted to strike. And at the point of the sword there were three big stars and from the stars sprang a cloud-coloured stream, which was longer than the comet’s tail, as it is painted here."
