Inscription: Recto: upper centre, within image: “4. / MISERIAE ET EGESTATIS TYP9 / //”; lower margin: “Quae leuiter quondam tam nobile TEMPVS, EGESTAS Secta ruunt, flagrant aedes, per compita quaeque / Neglexi, heu quantis nunc premor aegra malis. Spreta jacens nostri turba sodalitij, / Diffracti radij, jacet: collisa supellex, Cogitur aut vilem victum mendica per orbem / Panno vix frigida membra tego. Quaerere, vel casus saepe timere malos. / Martin de Vos jnuentor. Crispian de Pass f.et exc. //”.
