Away from the three poles, the identity from the preceding part puts on the cubic . The local extensions and continuity put the three pole images there too. Thus , a cubic curve.
The local calculations gaveThey are three distinct points on the line with first coordinate zero. Hence are collinear. This is three-point Riemann-Roch construction of a plane cubic.
