Inscription: Recto: within image, left: “Martin de vos inuentor Sadeler excudit 1590 //”; lower margin: “REX SALOMON quo non alius florentior unquam / Extitit ille sua iam Maiestate uevendus. / Diues opum. Sceptrisq potens, populisq superbus, / Acceptus superis consultissimus inter / Mortales, toto regnauit ab asse beatus. / Haec repetens grato suluit sua pectora voto, / Dulce canens taedas, thalamiq Encomia casti / Carmina diuino deprompsit mystica sensu. //”; within image, upper: “CANTICVM CANTICORVM //”.
