An explicit multipole decomposition of the vector and pseudovector $N\ensuremath{-}{N}^{*}(1236)$ transition form factors is made, and the predictions of asymptotic chiral symmetry are discussed. A general consistency between the chiral predictions and the simplest assumptions on multipole behavior is found for one choice of decuplet chiral representation.
